Puc. Most clear.

Lur. Then all is said—not much, if you count words,

Yet to an understanding ear enough;

And all that my brief stay permits, beside.

Nor must you blame me, as I sought to teach

My elder in command, or threw a doubt

Upon the very skill, it comforts me

To know I leave,—your steady soldiership

Which never failed me: yet, because it seemed

A stranger's eye might haply note defect
