Question

Tom was dressed for dinner. He was grandly dressed and taken to a decorated apartuient, where a table was set for one, 'The furniture was of gold and the room was half filled with noble servers. A chaplain said grace and the Earl of Berkeley tied 1 napkin round Tom's neck. There was a taster, who tasted everything, before it was sent to the prince. The Lord Chief Butler was there, standing behind 'Tom's chair, watching the conduct of Lord Great Steward and the Lord Head Cook, who stood near. Tom did not know that he had three hundred and eighty four servants-all of them were not in that room, of course! All those that were present were well drilled to remember that the prince was temporarily mad and to be careful to show no surprise at his behaviour. Very soon Tom acted strangely but those present did not laugh—they only felt sad. Tom ate with his fingers and no one smiled or even seemed to observe it. He examined his napkins with great curiosity. It was a very delicate and beautiful fabric. He asked it to be removed lest he should spoil it. It was taken away without a protest and very courteously. Tom looked at the turnips and the lettuce and asked what they were. Was he supposed to eat them? (They had been recently introduced in England from Holland and were very expensive.) When he finished his dessert, he filled his pockets with nuts, but nobody seemed to be disturbed by it. Tom was disturbed because this was the only time he was allowed to do something with his own hands during the meal. He was sure he had done a most improper and unprincely thing! When his meal ended, a lord came and held before him a broad, shallow, golden dish, with rose water in it to clean his mouth and fingers with. Another lord stood with a napkin for Tom to wipe his mouth and fingers. Tom gazed at the dish for a moment with a puzzled look, then raised it and took a sip. Then he returned it to the waiting lord saying he did not like it very much! He now requested to be taken to his private chamber and was finally left alone. He then thought of the nuts he had brought away from dinner. He enjoyed himself for the first time since he had become a prince, cracking nuts. There was no crowd to watch him, no one to pester him with unwanted service. Let us leave him, enjoying his nuts!
