Chapter VI

Mr. Adjective Tried for Stealing

You have beauty still, although Mr. Adjective has made beautiful; and you have
lady, and man, and gold, although Mr. Adjective has made ladylike, and manly, and
golden. You ought to have known this, Mr. Noun, and not to have accused Mr.
Adjective of stealing. Therefore, as a punishment, I require you to send into
Schoolroom-shire a list of nouns that may be made into adjectives by the addition
of some of Mr. Adjective's tails."
