Opis

-Why, what's the matter with it, Mr Easy?- -The matter affects me as well as the boy. Nicodemus is a long name to write at full length, and Nick is vulgar. Besides, as there will be two Nicks, they will naturally call my boy young Nick, and of course I shall be styled old Nick, which will be diabolical.- -Well, Mr Easy, at all events then let me choose the name.- -That you shall, my dear, and it was with this view that I have mentioned the subject so early.- -I think, Mr Easy, I will call the boy after my poor father-his name shall be Robert.- -Very well, my dear, if you wish it, it shall be Robert. You shall have your own way.
