The boy has no respect for the men and thinks they act even less mature than he does in spite of his youth. He considers the men to be cowards, thieves, drunkards, and braggarts. The boy cites examples of items the men have stolen, such as a lute case and a shovel. He is especially offended by the fact that they encourage him to steal as well.
