Ly. I cannot say.
Cy. Oh, yes; look at it this way; what have feet to do?
Ly. Walk.
Cy. And do you think my feet walk worse than yours, or than the average man's?
Ly. Oh, not that, I dare say.
Cy. Then they are not in worse condition, if they do their work as well.
Ly. That may be so.
Cy. So it appears that, as far as feet go, I am in no worse condition than other people.
Ly. No, I do not think you are.
Cy. Well, the rest of my body, then? If it is in worse condition, it must be weaker, strength being the virtue of the body. Is mine weaker?
