Gregory. Next boy. [Walter steps forward.] Name?
Walter. I am Walter, the Miller's boy, and I help my father in the mill.
Anselm. That is right, Walter; we approve of that.
Gregory. You are diligent in the mill. How about lessons?
Walter. Well—I go to school——
Anselm. Are you at the head of your class?
Walter. N-n-n-no, sir.
Anselm. Second, then?
Walter. N-n-no, sir.
