ABSTRACT
And to that the shirt-collar came. All the rags were turned into white paper, but the shirt-collar became the very piece of paper we see here, and upon which this story has been printed, and that was done because he boasted so dreadfully about things that were not at all true, and this we must remember, so that we may on no account do the same, for we cannot know at all whether we shall not be put into the rag bag and returned to white paper, on which our whole history, even the most secret, shall be printed, so that we are obliged to run about and tell it, as the shirt-collar did.
