Yet I was surprised into the payment of a youth whom this man called to assist at the meas- urement, and I had to give the boatman drink-money at the end. He promised that the measure should be just : yet if I lifted my eye from the work he placed the logs Digitized by GooQle 140 VENETIAN LIFE slantingly on the measure, and threw in knotty chunks that crowded wholesome fuel out, and let the daylight through and through the pile. I protested, and he admitted the wrong when I pointed it out : " G...a razon^ lu ! " (He 's right !) he said to his fellows in infamy, and throwing aside the objection- able pieces, proceeded to evade justice by new artifices. When I had this memorable load of wood housed at home, I found that it had cost just what I paid my woodman, and that I had additionally lost my self-respect in being plundered before my face, and I resolved thereafter to be cheated in quiet dignity behind my back. The woodman exulted in his restored sovereignty, and I lost nothing in penalty for my revolt.
