It seems we shall have our work cut out for us then, now that he is not a child so easily corralled.
But think nothing of it; his illness is partially my doing. I had brought him to the shore yesterday and the water ran rather colder than he expected. Mayhap I should have cautioned him further, but there is little for it now.
If he put his mind to enjoying himself, I imagine there was very little you could have done to dissuade him. I would say he might learn from this, but I know better. All we can do now is keep the worst at bay.
But I shall leave him in your care for the time being then. Pray tell if there is aught else I should keep an eye out for while I am at market. I should return within an hour or two at most to aid you.

If you plan to get any vegetables, you needn't purchase any carrots.

When he was a child it wasn't impossible to keep him abed, but he has always been rather willful. Where his body may lack, his spirit prevails.
