Mrs Molesworth

Opis

He was spoilt-deplorably, absurdly spoilt. But, so far, that was perhaps the worst that could fairly be said against him. There was genuine manliness still, some chivalry even, yet struggling spasmodically to make itself felt, and-what was practically, perhaps, of more account as a preservative-some small amount of originality in his character. He had still a good deal to learn, and something too to unlearn before he could take rank as past-master in the stupid worldliness of his class and time. For he was neither so blase nor so cynical as he flattered himself, but young enough to affect being both to the extent of believing his own affectations real."
