` George , ' Mrs. Darling entreated him , ` not so loud ; the servants will hear you . ' Somehow they had got into the way of calling Liza the servants . ` Let them , ' he answered recklessly . ` Bring in the whole world . But I refuse to allow that dog to lord it in my nursery for an hour longer . ' The children wept , and Nana ran to him beseechingly , but he waved her back . He felt he was a strong man again . ` In vain , in vain , ' he cried ; ` the proper place for you is the yard , and there you go to be tied up this instant . ' ` George , George , ' Mrs. Darling whispered , ` remember what I told you about that boy . ' Alas , he would not listen . He was determined to show who was master in that house , and when commands would not draw Nana from the kennel , he lured her out of it with honeyed words , and seizing her roughly , dragged her from the nursery . He was ashamed of himself , and yet he did it . It was all owing to his too affectionate nature , which craved for admiration . When he had tied her up in the back-yard , the wretched father went and sat in the passage , with his knuckles to his eyes . In the meantime Mrs. Darling had put the children to bed in unwonted silence and lit their night-lights . They could hear Nana barking , and John whimpered , ` It is because he is chaining her up in the yard , ' but Wendy was wiser . ` That is not Nana 's unhappy bark , ' she said , little guessing what was about to happen ; ` that is her bark when she smells danger . ' Danger ! ` Are you sure , Wendy ? ' ` Oh yes . '
Mrs. XXXXX quivered and went to the window .
