The Pupil: Large Print

By: James, Henry

The poor young man hesitated and procrastinated: it cost him such an effort to broach thesubject of terms, to speak of money to a person who spoke only of feelings and, as it were, of the aristocracy. Yet he was unwilling to take leave, treating his engagement as settled, without some more conventional glance in that direction than he could find an opening forin the manner of the large affable lady who sat there drawing a pair of soiled gants deSu de through a fat jewelled hand and, at once pressing and gliding, repeated over andover everything but the thing he would have liked to hear. He would have liked to hear thefigure of his salary; but just as he was nervously about to sound that note the little boycame back-the little boy Mrs. Moreen had sent out of the room to fetch her fan. He cameback without the fan, only with the casual observation that he couldn't find it.
