All of which shows that the Hohenzollerns are dangerous masters ; that cruelty runs in the family, so to speak ; as a matter of fact, terror stalks ahead of William, his people flee, and hide in fireplaces and niches to escape his eye : they do not care to expose themselves to violence ; and what guar- antee is there against a caning, or worse, when the sight of a servant walking up a staircase or through a corridor suffices to throw the master into a violent passion ? " Die verdammten Hausdien...er " (those accursed flunkies) " lounge everywhere about the palace ; Eulenburg, you must keep them in the kitchen, or cellar, where they be- long, " is his Majesty's every-day complaint to his grand- master, when at home. " May it please your Majesty, no man or woman enters the residential parts of the palace unless on special duty. " " Details, my dear Eulenburg, do not concern me, and I will not have them thrown up to me.
