JAMB - Literature In English (1986 - No. 19)
When Mr. Jagger''s told Joe Gargery to ''bear in mind, that Brag is a good dog, but Holdfast is a better'', what he meant was that
Holdfast was a better dog when compared to Brag
it was better to hold fast on one''s beliefs than to brag about them
a faithful, steadfast dog was better than a dog that gives one cause to bragof its beauty
Joe Gargery should keep his mouth shut.
