Imagínate, un nuevo comienzo: cuando el cuerpo te falle, lo abandonas, emigras..., tú o al menos una sintomatología equivalente a tu persona.

Imagino que mantiene relaciones con otros monjes, aunque quizá no las mantuviera con el pobre Simón; pero llegas tú enseñando la pantorrilla, con tu buen jubón y tus buenas calzas, y empieza a soñar contigo mientras está con ellos.

I can imagine he has his attachments among the monks, even if not to poor Whelplay, but then you come along showing a fine calf, in your good doublet and hose, and he starts dreaming of you out of them.'

'You see what he did, then I show him to you – no questions, you just get a look at him, he's in the kitchen – but you make sure you get into the paper that he's no boy next door.
