William outshined the adults in knowledge and nerve while saving the orphanage where he was staying. Judicial records state that William lent a nobleman £600 in the spirit of a certain play. But when the contract is broken, William takes drastic measures.
I ask, not for my sake, but for the
orphans, if I could borrow that money?
Würden Sie mir dieses Geld leihen,
Le pido, no por mí sino por los huérfanos,
que me preste algo de ese dinero.
Pourriez-vous m’accorder ce prêt ?
Eu não peço por mim, mas pelos órfãos.
Posso pegar emprestado?
Обращаюсь к вам от имени сирот.
