kindness
of my poor mother,
God bless and forgive her, I was allowed
to be idle at home when I ought to
have been working at school: the end
of it was, that I never learned Latin at
home, was disgraced at college, lost
many opportunities of getting forward
in life, went into the army, because it
was the only profession I could go into;
thought I could do without Latin and
Greek; found I was mistaken; was
obliged to learn late what I would not
learn early -- in short, I cannot tell you
how much I have suffered, nor what
difficulty and toil it has been to me,
since I became a man, to make up
for what I might have been made to
learn with ease in the first ten or twelve
