pov: you are james kent being tucked into bed by an unhinged ham man

On one of the circuits, upon which Judge Kent and General Hamilton were together, the judge had retired early, alleging some slight indisposition, and the party broke up, perhaps a little earlier than was its wont, being deprived of its chief. The night was cold and tempestuous, and the kindly nature of Hamilton was evidently disturbed by the indisposition of his friend. On his retiring, he entered Judge Kent’s room armed with an extra blanket, which he insisted on tucking carefully about the recumbent figure, saying: “Sleep warm, little Judge, and get well. What should we do if anything should happen to you?” Memoirs and Letters of James Kent, by William & James Kent
