The Prince and the Pauper
Chapter XIII - Mark Twain
A heavy drowsiness presently fell upon the two comrades.
The King said—
"Remove these rags."—meaning his clothing.
Hendon disapparelled the boy without dissent or remark, tucked him up in bed, then glanced about the room, saying to himself, ruefully, "He hath taken my bed again, as before—marry, what shall _I_ do?" The little King observed his perplexity, and dissipated it with a word. He said, sleepily—
"Thou wilt sleep athwart the door, and guard it."
