1 To a large extent the lad was his own creation.
2 The lad started, as if awakened from some dream.
3 It posed the lad, made him more perfect, as it were.
4 "You don't know his name, though," said the lad harshly.
5 "I should like to come to the theatre with you, Lord Henry," said the lad.
6 At this moment, the door opened and a young lad with rough brown hair came into the room.
7 The lad muttered something to himself and drummed on the window-pane with his coarse fingers.
8 "You might keep some of your kisses for me, Sibyl, I think," said the lad with a good-natured grumble.
9 The lad hesitated, and looked over at Lord Henry, who was watching them from the tea-table with an amused smile.
10 Yes; he would try to be to Dorian Gray what, without knowing it, the lad was to the painter who had fashioned the wonderful portrait.
11 With a stifled sob the lad leaped from the couch, and, rushing over to Hallward, tore the knife out of his hand, and flung it to the end of the studio.
12 He was a marvellous type, too, this lad, whom by so curious a chance he had met in Basil's studio, or could be fashioned into a marvellous type, at any rate.
13 "Oh, I am tired of sitting, and I don't want a life-sized portrait of myself," answered the lad, swinging round on the music-stool in a wilful, petulant manner.
14 Certainly few people had ever interested him so much as Dorian Gray, and yet the lad's mad adoration of some one else caused him not the slightest pang of annoyance or jealousy.
15 So the lad was looking rather sulky, as with listless fingers he turned over the pages of an elaborately illustrated edition of Manon Lescaut that he had found in one of the book-cases.
16 "Just turn your head a little more to the right, Dorian, like a good boy," said the painter, deep in his work and conscious only that a look had come into the lad's face that he had never seen there before.
17 What there was in it of the purely sensuous instinct of boyhood had been transformed by the workings of the imagination, changed into something that seemed to the lad himself to be remote from sense, and was for that very reason all the more dangerous.
