Xxix Tradition relates that the foolish father had encouraged the boy of fourteen to amuse himself at the public gaming- tables ; and that his reception on his return to Eton was far from flattering. Masters and boys alike are said to have made his life a burden to him ; and we are told that Dr Barnard, the head master, greeted him with a flogging. 1 The story is probably an exaggeration, for we can read an account of the term in his own words. At least he realised the drawbacks of his prolonge...d holiday, and made up his mind not to repeat the mistake : " Tho' I have made no very good verses since the holidays, I have not been idle ; as I have made some good themes, and studied a good deal in other parts of my business. And indeed I have taken some pains in verses, but from long disuse they do not come easy to me. Even now I am here, 1 I am not entirely idle ; I read Tully, and look over many speeches to speak when I return, which shall be as soon as Mr Hawkins says I can. I hope, when you come, you will be able to spare one Tuesday or Saturday to come to Eton to hear me speak.
