"No sir. I am only beginning."

"I ask, because I saw some Greek books on de table de ozer
night and I wondered -- excuse me -- who was reading them. You
do not know nothing of German?"

"No sir."

"Ah, you must learn de German -- dat is _my_ language."

"I don't know my own language yet," said Winthrop.

"Vat is dat?"

"English."

"English! -- But how do you do, here amongst de hills -- is
there somebody to learn you?"

"No sir."

"And you go by yourself? -- Vell, I believe you will climb
anything," said Mr. Herder, with a little smile; "only it is
goot to know what place to begin, -- as I have found."

"I must begin where I can, sir."

"But you should get to de Université; from dere it is more
easy."
