` Yes , but at what a cost ! By depriving the children of ten minutes of delight . ' ` Oh , if you look at it in that way . ' ` What other way is there in which to look at it ? ' You see , the woman had no proper spirit . I had meant to say extraordinarily nice things about her ; but I despise her , and not one of them will I say now . She does not really need to be told to have things ready , for they are ready . All the beds are aired , and she never leaves the house , and observe , the window is open . For all the use we are to her , we might go back to the ship . However , as we are here we may as well stay and look on . That is all we are , lookers-on . Nobody really wants us . So let us watch and say jaggy things , in the hope that some of them will hurt . The only change to be seen in the night-nursery is that between nine and six the kennel is no longer there . When the children flew away , Mr. Darling felt in his bones that all the blame was his for having chained Nana up , and that from first to last she had been wiser than he . Of course , as we have seen , he was quite a simple man ; indeed he might have passed for a boy again if he had been able to take his baldness off ; but he had also a noble sense of justice and a lion courage to do what seemed right to him ; and having thought the matter out with anxious care after the flight of the children , he went down on all fours and crawled into the kennel . To all Mrs. Darling 's dear invitations to him to come out he replied sadly but firmly : ` No , my own one , this is the place for me . ' In the bitterness of his remorse he swore that he would never leave the kennel until his children came back . Of course this was a pity ; but whatever Mr. Darling did he had to do in excess ; otherwise he soon gave up doing it . And there never was a more humble man than the once proud George Darling , as he sat in the kennel of an evening talking with his wife of their children and all their pretty ways .
Very touching was his deference to XXXXX .
