Sir Thomas has the blunt thumb OF the

Sir Thomas IS OF a prudent disposition

the fingers lie together, and as shown
also by the shape of the palm, which Is

This preliminary step in the educa-

is merely necessary to turn him over a

then to persuade him to do it himself

course is to make him take hold or

chiefly necessary to convince him that
