T.H. White Quote
I am writing a treatise just now said the badger, coughing diffidently to show that he was absolutely set on explaining it, which is to point out why Man has become the master of the animals. Perhaps you would like to hear it? It's for my doctor's degree you know, he added hastily, before Wart could protest. He got few chances of reading his treatise to anybody, so he could not bear to let the opportunity slip by.
