What on earth are you making that whistling for? he asked.
gpt
I declare one would think that you were as happy as a man could be.
human
And so I am, said the baker,
gpt
And so I should think were you too, for you have nothing to trouble you.
human
Nothing to trouble me, forsooth! cried the doctor in a rage.
gpt
How dare you insult me in this way? I tell you what it is, my fine fellow, I think you are very impertinent, and if I have any more of your impudence I will take my stick and thrash you soundly. It really is not to be borne, that one man should be allowed to tell another that he has nothing to complain of.
human
Nay, _you_ can have as much to complain of as you like, so long as I have not,
gpt
Was there ever such a village as this? he cried.
human
It is not fit for any one to live in, there is always such fighting and quarrelling going on. What is the matter here?
gpt
Matter enough, cried the doctor.
human
Here is a fellow dares to tell me I have nothing to complain of, nor he either.
gpt
This is monstrous! said the farmer;
human
Why, Master Farmer, cried the baker,
gpt
And I tell you that it is enough to make one grumble, said the farmer.
human
It should have been fair yesterday, and should have rained to-day. You ought to be ashamed of such talk, Master Baker, and I think it would serve you justly right if we took you before the Justice and let us see what he thinks of your conduct.
gpt
Nay! cried the baker, beginning to be frightened,
human
What have you done, indeed! said the doctor.
gpt
We will see if the Justice cannot find that out pretty quickly.
