But they that guarded Jurgen and all the other Phil- istines stood to this side and to that side with their eyes shut tight and saying in unison, "We decline to look, because to look might seem to imply a doubt of what the tumble- bug has said. Besides, so long as the tum- blebug has reasons which he declines, to re- veal, his reasons stay unanswerable, and you are plainly a prurient rascal, who are mak- ing trouble for yourself."
