What a Father Should Teach His Son

Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894), Catriona, chapter X:
"But what was your father that he could not learn you to draw the sword? It is most ungentle; I have not heard the match of that in anyone."

"It is most misconvenient at least," said I; "and I think my father (honest man!) must have been woolgathering to learn me Latin in the place of it."
