Miles had the wisdom, however, to conceal his feelings, and to take the reproof and advice in good part.  Afterwards, on being set free, he met a recruiting sergeant, who, regarding him as a suitable subject for the service of her Majesty, immediately laid siege to him.  In his then state of mind the siege was an easy one.  In short, he capitulated at once and entered the Queen's service, under the name of John Miles.
