<ROBERT MACAIRE.> 2nd Series: (17) Man in naluratibus [sic]. Philosophy, my dear Bertrand, explains very well our two characters from our physiques... you are weakness, I am strength... to you is cunning, to me courage... you are the ivy and I the oak, without me the slightest breeze from the police will plunge you into a torrent of misfortune... do not leave me and inscribe upon your arms: I die or I cling.
