devoted to
embrace and welcome, the Doctor turned to Archie and began to examine
his hurts.
"Quiet, sir!" he cried, as he passed a hand hastily across his
screwed-up eyes. "I've no time for all this nonsense with all these
wounded on my hands. I've kissed her, boy, and said I was glad; and her
aunt and Sir Charles here will do all the rest. Now, Archie, my lad, no
nonsense; lean on me. Do you think I've been wounded too? I haven't a
scratch. I say you shall have first turn, and--I say, wasn't I right
when I prescribed that day? Do you feel anything like a boy now?"
"Oh, I say, Doctor, don't!"
"What!" cried the Doctor, purposely misunderstanding him. "What! going
to play the woman? Bah! I'm going to hurt you far more than that."
