"We rode for half a day before we reached the impressive château of a neighbouring lord, and there [my mother] and the gentleman took me out to the kennel, where she told me to choose my favourites from a new litter of mastiff puppies. I had never seen anything as tender and endearing as these little mastiff pups. And the big dogs were like drowsy lions as they watched us. Simply magnificent.

I was too excited almost to make the choice. I brought back the male and female that the lord advised me to pick, carrying them all the way home on my lap in a basket."
