If he had desired to defy all Divine law and outrage all humansociety, he felt that he could do it by shuffling them. And he was quiteright. The two bad boys enjoyed in stealth their scandalous pastime, because they knew it was the most wicked thing they could do. If it hadbeen as sinless as playing marbles, they would n't have cared forit. John sometimes drove past a brown, tumble-down farmhouse, whoseshiftless inhabitants, it was said, were card-playing people; and it isimpossible to describe... how wicked that house appeared to John. He almostexpected to see its shingles stand on end. In the old New England onecould not in any other way so express his contempt of all holy andorderly life as by playing cards for amusement. There was no element of Christmas in John's life, any more than therewas of Easter; and probably nobody about him could have explainedEaster; and he escaped all the demoralization attending Christmas gifts. Indeed, he never had any presents of any kind, either on his birthday orany other day.
