Context : In this passage Phatik’s attitude’s changes have been described. When his uncle asked him to take away with himself his joy was boundless.
Explanation : When Phatik’s uncle came to his home he felt happy. His uncle asked his mother about the education of her sons and his sister told him about the difference of attitude of her two children. Phatik was lazy, disobedient, and wild. But Makhan was as good as gold, as quiet as a lamb and very fond of reading. Bishambhar asked his sister to take Phatik with him at calcutta and to look after him as his own son. Phatik’s mother agreed with her brother. When Phatik became to know about this he readily accepted the offer as he himself wanted to go away from his village.
