translation.ca: Inspirat per la magnificencia del seu acte, rebé sense un esgarip el fueteig més implacable que mai hagués administrat el senyor Dobbins i aiximateix rebé amb indiferencia l'afegida crueltat d'una orde de romandre dues hores, després que l'escola fos aviada; perque prou sabia qui havia d'esperar-se a fora fins que son captiveri fos acabat, sense comptar la tediosa estona com a temps perdut.
translation.en: Inspired by the splendor of his own act, he took without an outcry the most merciless flaying that even Mr. Dobbins had ever administered; and also received with indifference the added cruelty of a command to remain two hours after school should be dismissed--for he knew who would wait for him outside till his captivity was done, and not count the tedious time as loss, either.
