Really
,
I
think
I
could
do
a
greater
thing
than
that
if
the
need
were
pressing
.
I
am
at
your
service
and
the
darling
child
’
s
,
my
dear
,
whenever
you
like
.
"
Caddy
was
quite
transported
by
this
reply
of
mine
,
being
,
I
believe
,
as
susceptible
to
the
least
kindness
or
encouragement
as
any
tender
heart
that
ever
beat
in
this
world
;
and
after
another
turn
or
two
round
the
garden
,
during
which
she
put
on
an
entirely
new
pair
of
gloves
and
made
herself
as
resplendent
as
possible
that
she
might
do
no
avoidable
discredit
to
the
Master
of
Deportment
,
we
went
to
Newman
Street
direct
.
Prince
was
teaching
,
of
course
.
We
found
him
engaged
with
a
not
very
hopeful
pupil
—
a
stubborn
little
girl
with
a
sulky
forehead
,
a
deep
voice
,
and
an
inanimate
,
dissatisfied
mama
—
whose
case
was
certainly
not
rendered
more
hopeful
by
the
confusion
into
which
we
threw
her
preceptor
.
The
lesson
at
last
came
to
an
end
,
after
proceeding
as
discordantly
as
possible
;
and
when
the
little
girl
had
changed
her
shoes
and
had
had
her
white
muslin
extinguished
in
shawls
,
she
was
taken
away
.
After
a
few
words
of
preparation
,
we
then
went
in
search
of
Mr
.
Turveydrop
,
whom
we
found
,
grouped
with
his
hat
and
gloves
,
as
a
model
of
deportment
,
on
the
sofa
in
his
private
apartment
—
the
only
comfortable
room
in
the
house
.
He
appeared
to
have
dressed
at
his
leisure
in
the
intervals
of
a
light
collation
,
and
his
dressing
-
case
,
brushes
,
and
so
forth
,
all
of
quite
an
elegant
kind
,
lay
about
.
"
Father
,
Miss
Summerson
;
Miss
Jellyby
.
"
"
Charmed
!
Enchanted
!
"
said
Mr
.
Turveydrop
,
rising
with
his
high
-
shouldered
bow
.
"
Permit
me
!
"
Handing
chairs
.
"
Be
seated
!
"
Kissing
the
tips
of
his
left
fingers
.
"
Overjoyed
!
"
Shutting
his
eyes
and
rolling
.
"
My
little
retreat
is
made
a
paradise
.
"
Recomposing
himself
on
the
sofa
like
the
second
gentleman
in
Europe
.
"
Again
you
find
us
,
Miss
Summerson
,
"
said
he
,
"
using
our
little
arts
to
polish
,
polish
!
Again
the
sex
stimulates
us
and
rewards
us
by
the
condescension
of
its
lovely
presence
.
It
is
much
in
these
times
(
and
we
have
made
an
awfully
degenerating
business
of
it
since
the
days
of
his
Royal
Highness
the
Prince
Regent
—
my
patron
,
if
I
may
presume
to
say
so
)
to
experience
that
deportment
is
not
wholly
trodden
under
foot
by
mechanics
.
That
it
can
yet
bask
in
the
smile
of
beauty
,
my
dear
madam
.
"
I
said
nothing
,
which
I
thought
a
suitable
reply
;
and
he
took
a
pinch
of
snuff
.
"
My
dear
son
,
"
said
Mr
.
Turveydrop
,
"
you
have
four
schools
this
afternoon
.
I
would
recommend
a
hasty
sandwich
.
"
"
Thank
you
,
father
,
"
returned
Prince
,
"
I
will
be
sure
to
be
punctual
.
My
dear
father
,
may
I
beg
you
to
prepare
your
mind
for
what
I
am
going
to
say
?
"
"
Good
heaven
!
"
exclaimed
the
model
,
pale
and
aghast
as
Prince
and
Caddy
,
hand
in
hand
,
bent
down
before
him
.
"
What
is
this
?
Is
this
lunacy
!
Or
what
is
this
?
"
"
Father
,
"
returned
Prince
with
great
submission
,
"
I
love
this
young
lady
,
and
we
are
engaged
.
"
"
Engaged
!
"
cried
Mr
.
Turveydrop
,
reclining
on
the
sofa
and
shutting
out
the
sight
with
his
hand
.
"
An
arrow
launched
at
my
brain
by
my
own
child
!
"
"
We
have
been
engaged
for
some
time
,
father
,
"
faltered
Prince
,
"
and
Miss
Summerson
,
hearing
of
it
,
advised
that
we
should
declare
the
fact
to
you
and
was
so
very
kind
as
to
attend
on
the
present
occasion
.
Miss
Jellyby
is
a
young
lady
who
deeply
respects
you
,
father
.
"
Mr
.
Turveydrop
uttered
a
groan
.
"
No
,
pray
don
’
t
!
Pray
don
’
t
,
father
,
"
urged
his
son
.
"
Miss
Jellyby
is
a
young
lady
who
deeply
respects
you
,
and
our
first
desire
is
to
consider
your
comfort
.
"
Mr
.
Turveydrop
sobbed
.
"
No
,
pray
don
’
t
,
father
!
"
cried
his
son
.
"
Boy
,
"
said
Mr
.
Turveydrop
,
"
it
is
well
that
your
sainted
mother
is
spared
this
pang
.
Strike
deep
,
and
spare
not
.
Strike
home
,
sir
,
strike
home
!
"
"
Pray
don
’
t
say
so
,
father
,
"
implored
Prince
,
in
tears
.
"
It
goes
to
my
heart
.
I
do
assure
you
,
father
,
that
our
first
wish
and
intention
is
to
consider
your
comfort
.
Caroline
and
I
do
not
forget
our
duty
—
what
is
my
duty
is
Caroline
’
s
,
as
we
have
often
said
together
—
and
with
your
approval
and
consent
,
father
,
we
will
devote
ourselves
to
making
your
life
agreeable
.
"
"
Strike
home
,
"
murmured
Mr
.
Turveydrop
.
"
Strike
home
!
"
But
he
seemed
to
listen
,
I
thought
,
too
.
"
My
dear
father
,
"
returned
Prince
,
"
we
well
know
what
little
comforts
you
are
accustomed
to
and
have
a
right
to
,
and
it
will
always
be
our
study
and
our
pride
to
provide
those
before
anything
.
If
you
will
bless
us
with
your
approval
and
consent
,
father
,
we
shall
not
think
of
being
married
until
it
is
quite
agreeable
to
you
;
and
when
we
ARE
married
,
we
shall
always
make
you
—
of
course
—
our
first
consideration
.
You
must
ever
be
the
head
and
master
here
,
father
;
and
we
feel
how
truly
unnatural
it
would
be
in
us
if
we
failed
to
know
it
or
if
we
failed
to
exert
ourselves
in
every
possible
way
to
please
you
.
"
Mr
.
Turveydrop
underwent
a
severe
internal
struggle
and
came
upright
on
the
sofa
again
with
his
cheeks
puffing
over
his
stiff
cravat
,
a
perfect
model
of
parental
deportment
.
"
My
son
!
"
said
Mr
.
Turveydrop
.
"
My
children
!
I
cannot
resist
your
prayer
.
Be
happy
!
"
His
benignity
as
he
raised
his
future
daughter
-
in
-
law
and
stretched
out
his
hand
to
his
son
(
who
kissed
it
with
affectionate
respect
and
gratitude
)
was
the
most
confusing
sight
I
ever
saw
.
"
My
children
,
"
said
Mr
.
Turveydrop
,
paternally
encircling
Caddy
with
his
left
arm
as
she
sat
beside
him
,
and
putting
his
right
hand
gracefully
on
his
hip
.
"
My
son
and
daughter
,
your
happiness
shall
be
my
care
.
I
will
watch
over
you
.
You
shall
always
live
with
me
"
—
meaning
,
of
course
,
I
will
always
live
with
you
—
"
this
house
is
henceforth
as
much
yours
as
mine
;
consider
it
your
home
.
May
you
long
live
to
share
it
with
me
!
"
The
power
of
his
deportment
was
such
that
they
really
were
as
much
overcome
with
thankfulness
as
if
,
instead
of
quartering
himself
upon
them
for
the
rest
of
his
life
,
he
were
making
some
munificent
sacrifice
in
their
favour
.
"
For
myself
,
my
children
,
"
said
Mr
.
Turveydrop
,
"
I
am
falling
into
the
sear
and
yellow
leaf
,
and
it
is
impossible
to
say
how
long
the
last
feeble
traces
of
gentlemanly
deportment
may
linger
in
this
weaving
and
spinning
age
.
But
,
so
long
,
I
will
do
my
duty
to
society
and
will
show
myself
,
as
usual
,
about
town
.
My
wants
are
few
and
simple
.
My
little
apartment
here
,
my
few
essentials
for
the
toilet
,
my
frugal
morning
meal
,
and
my
little
dinner
will
suffice
.
I
charge
your
dutiful
affection
with
the
supply
of
these
requirements
,
and
I
charge
myself
with
all
the
rest
.
"
They
were
overpowered
afresh
by
his
uncommon
generosity
.
"
My
son
,
"
said
Mr
.
Turveydrop
,
"
for
those
little
points
in
which
you
are
deficient
—
points
of
deportment
,
which
are
born
with
a
man
,
which
may
be
improved
by
cultivation
,
but
can
never
be
originated
—
you
may
still
rely
on
me
.
I
have
been
faithful
to
my
post
since
the
days
of
his
Royal
Highness
the
Prince
Regent
,
and
I
will
not
desert
it
now
.
No
,
my
son
.
If
you
have
ever
contemplated
your
father
’
s
poor
position
with
a
feeling
of
pride
,
you
may
rest
assured
that
he
will
do
nothing
to
tarnish
it
.
For
yourself
,
Prince
,
whose
character
is
different
(
we
cannot
be
all
alike
,
nor
is
it
advisable
that
we
should
)
,
work
,
be
industrious
,
earn
money
,
and
extend
the
connexion
as
much
as
possible
.
"
"
That
you
may
depend
I
will
do
,
dear
father
,
with
all
my
heart
,
"
replied
Prince
.
"
I
have
no
doubt
of
it
,
"
said
Mr
.
Turveydrop
.
"
Your
qualities
are
not
shining
,
my
dear
child
,
but
they
are
steady
and
useful
.
And
to
both
of
you
,
my
children
,
I
would
merely
observe
,
in
the
spirit
of
a
sainted
wooman
on
whose
path
I
had
the
happiness
of
casting
,
I
believe
,
SOME
ray
of
light
,
take
care
of
the
establishment
,
take
care
of
my
simple
wants
,
and
bless
you
both
!
"
Old
Mr
.
Turveydrop
then
became
so
very
gallant
,
in
honour
of
the
occasion
,
that
I
told
Caddy
we
must
really
go
to
Thavies
Inn
at
once
if
we
were
to
go
at
all
that
day
.
So
we
took
our
departure
after
a
very
loving
farewell
between
Caddy
and
her
betrothed
,
and
during
our
walk
she
was
so
happy
and
so
full
of
old
Mr
.
Turveydrop
’
s
praises
that
I
would
not
have
said
a
word
in
his
disparagement
for
any
consideration
.
The
house
in
Thavies
Inn
had
bills
in
the
windows
announcing
that
it
was
to
let
,
and
it
looked
dirtier
and
gloomier
and
ghastlier
than
ever
.
The
name
of
poor
Mr
.
Jellyby
had
appeared
in
the
list
of
bankrupts
but
a
day
or
two
before
,
and
he
was
shut
up
in
the
dining
-
room
with
two
gentlemen
and
a
heap
of
blue
bags
,
account
-
books
,
and
papers
,
making
the
most
desperate
endeavours
to
understand
his
affairs
.
They
appeared
to
me
to
be
quite
beyond
his
comprehension
,
for
when
Caddy
took
me
into
the
dining
-
room
by
mistake
and
we
came
upon
Mr
.
Jellyby
in
his
spectacles
,
forlornly
fenced
into
a
corner
by
the
great
dining
-
table
and
the
two
gentlemen
,
he
seemed
to
have
given
up
the
whole
thing
and
to
be
speechless
and
insensible
.
Going
upstairs
to
Mrs
.
Jellyby
’
s
room
(
the
children
were
all
screaming
in
the
kitchen
,
and
there
was
no
servant
to
be
seen
)
,
we
found
that
lady
in
the
midst
of
a
voluminous
correspondence
,
opening
,
reading
,
and
sorting
letters
,
with
a
great
accumulation
of
torn
covers
on
the
floor
.
She
was
so
preoccupied
that
at
first
she
did
not
know
me
,
though
she
sat
looking
at
me
with
that
curious
,
bright
-
eyed
,
far
-
off
look
of
hers
.
"
Ah
!
Miss
Summerson
!
"
she
said
at
last
.
"
I
was
thinking
of
something
so
different
!
I
hope
you
are
well
.
I
am
happy
to
see
you
.
Mr
.
Jarndyce
and
Miss
Clare
quite
well
?
"
I
hoped
in
return
that
Mr
.
Jellyby
was
quite
well
.
"
Why
,
not
quite
,
my
dear
,
"
said
Mrs
.
Jellyby
in
the
calmest
manner
.
"
He
has
been
unfortunate
in
his
affairs
and
is
a
little
out
of
spirits
.
Happily
for
me
,
I
am
so
much
engaged
that
I
have
no
time
to
think
about
it
.
We
have
,
at
the
present
moment
,
one
hundred
and
seventy
families
,
Miss
Summerson
,
averaging
five
persons
in
each
,
either
gone
or
going
to
the
left
bank
of
the
Niger
.
"
I
thought
of
the
one
family
so
near
us
who
were
neither
gone
nor
going
to
the
left
bank
of
the
Niger
,
and
wondered
how
she
could
be
so
placid
.
"
You
have
brought
Caddy
back
,
I
see
,
"
observed
Mrs
.
Jellyby
with
a
glance
at
her
daughter
.
"
It
has
become
quite
a
novelty
to
see
her
here
.
She
has
almost
deserted
her
old
employment
and
in
fact
obliges
me
to
employ
a
boy
.
"
"
I
am
sure
,
Ma
—
"
began
Caddy
.
"
Now
you
know
,
Caddy
,
"
her
mother
mildly
interposed
,
"
that
I
DO
employ
a
boy
,
who
is
now
at
his
dinner
.
What
is
the
use
of
your
contradicting
?
"
"
I
was
not
going
to
contradict
,
Ma
,
"
returned
Caddy
.
"
I
was
only
going
to
say
that
surely
you
wouldn
’
t
have
me
be
a
mere
drudge
all
my
life
.
"
"
I
believe
,
my
dear
,
"
said
Mrs
.
Jellyby
,
still
opening
her
letters
,
casting
her
bright
eyes
smilingly
over
them
,
and
sorting
them
as
she
spoke
,
"
that
you
have
a
business
example
before
you
in
your
mother
.
Besides
.
A
mere
drudge
?
If
you
had
any
sympathy
with
the
destinies
of
the
human
race
,
it
would
raise
you
high
above
any
such
idea
.
But
you
have
none
.
I
have
often
told
you
,
Caddy
,
you
have
no
such
sympathy
.
"
"
Not
if
it
’
s
Africa
,
Ma
,
I
have
not
.
"
"
Of
course
you
have
not
.
Now
,
if
I
were
not
happily
so
much
engaged
,
Miss
Summerson
,
"
said
Mrs
.
Jellyby
,
sweetly
casting
her
eyes
for
a
moment
on
me
and
considering
where
to
put
the
particular
letter
she
had
just
opened
,
"
this
would
distress
and
disappoint
me
.
But
I
have
so
much
to
think
of
,
in
connexion
with
Borrioboola
-
Gha
and
it
is
so
necessary
I
should
concentrate
myself
that
there
is
my
remedy
,
you
see
.
"
As
Caddy
gave
me
a
glance
of
entreaty
,
and
as
Mrs
.
Jellyby
was
looking
far
away
into
Africa
straight
through
my
bonnet
and
head
,
I
thought
it
a
good
opportunity
to
come
to
the
subject
of
my
visit
and
to
attract
Mrs
.
Jellyby
’
s
attention
.
"
Perhaps
,
"
I
began
,
"
you
will
wonder
what
has
brought
me
here
to
interrupt
you
.
"
"
I
am
always
delighted
to
see
Miss
Summerson
,
"
said
Mrs
.
Jellyby
,
pursuing
her
employment
with
a
placid
smile
.
"
Though
I
wish
,
"
and
she
shook
her
head
,
"
she
was
more
interested
in
the
Borrioboolan
project
.
"
"
I
have
come
with
Caddy
,
"
said
I
,
"
because
Caddy
justly
thinks
she
ought
not
to
have
a
secret
from
her
mother
and
fancies
I
shall
encourage
and
aid
her
(
though
I
am
sure
I
don
’
t
know
how
)
in
imparting
one
.
"
"
Caddy
,
"
said
Mrs
.
Jellyby
,
pausing
for
a
moment
in
her
occupation
and
then
serenely
pursuing
it
after
shaking
her
head
,
"
you
are
going
to
tell
me
some
nonsense
.
"
Caddy
untied
the
strings
of
her
bonnet
,
took
her
bonnet
off
,
and
letting
it
dangle
on
the
floor
by
the
strings
,
and
crying
heartily
,
said
,
"
Ma
,
I
am
engaged
.
"
"
Oh
,
you
ridiculous
child
!
"
observed
Mrs
.
Jellyby
with
an
abstracted
air
as
she
looked
over
the
dispatch
last
opened
;
"
what
a
goose
you
are
!
"
"
I
am
engaged
,
Ma
,
"
sobbed
Caddy
,
"
to
young
Mr
.
Turveydrop
,
at
the
academy
;
and
old
Mr
.
Turveydrop
(
who
is
a
very
gentlemanly
man
indeed
)
has
given
his
consent
,
and
I
beg
and
pray
you
’
ll
give
us
yours
,
Ma
,
because
I
never
could
be
happy
without
it
.
I
never
,
never
could
!
"
sobbed
Caddy
,
quite
forgetful
of
her
general
complainings
and
of
everything
but
her
natural
affection
.
"
You
see
again
,
Miss
Summerson
,
"
observed
Mrs
.
Jellyby
serenely
,
"
what
a
happiness
it
is
to
be
so
much
occupied
as
I
am
and
to
have
this
necessity
for
self
-
concentration
that
I
have
.
Here
is
Caddy
engaged
to
a
dancing
-
master
’
s
son
—
mixed
up
with
people
who
have
no
more
sympathy
with
the
destinies
of
the
human
race
than
she
has
herself
!
This
,
too
,
when
Mr
.
Quale
,
one
of
the
first
philanthropists
of
our
time
,
has
mentioned
to
me
that
he
was
really
disposed
to
be
interested
in
her
!
"
"
Ma
,
I
always
hated
and
detested
Mr
.
Quale
!
"
sobbed
Caddy
.
"
Caddy
,
Caddy
!
"
returned
Mrs
.
Jellyby
,
opening
another
letter
with
the
greatest
complacency
.
"
I
have
no
doubt
you
did
.
How
could
you
do
otherwise
,
being
totally
destitute
of
the
sympathies
with
which
he
overflows
!
Now
,
if
my
public
duties
were
not
a
favourite
child
to
me
,
if
I
were
not
occupied
with
large
measures
on
a
vast
scale
,
these
petty
details
might
grieve
me
very
much
,
Miss
Summerson
.
But
can
I
permit
the
film
of
a
silly
proceeding
on
the
part
of
Caddy
(
from
whom
I
expect
nothing
else
)
to
interpose
between
me
and
the
great
African
continent
?
No
.
No
,
"
repeated
Mrs
.
Jellyby
in
a
calm
clear
voice
,
and
with
an
agreeable
smile
,
as
she
opened
more
letters
and
sorted
them
.
"
No
,
indeed
.
"
I
was
so
unprepared
for
the
perfect
coolness
of
this
reception
,
though
I
might
have
expected
it
,
that
I
did
not
know
what
to
say
.
Caddy
seemed
equally
at
a
loss
.
Mrs
.
Jellyby
continued
to
open
and
sort
letters
and
to
repeat
occasionally
in
quite
a
charming
tone
of
voice
and
with
a
smile
of
perfect
composure
,
"
No
,
indeed
.
"
"
I
hope
,
Ma
,
"
sobbed
poor
Caddy
at
last
,
"
you
are
not
angry
?
"
"
Oh
,
Caddy
,
you
really
are
an
absurd
girl
,
"
returned
Mrs
.
Jellyby
,
"
to
ask
such
questions
after
what
I
have
said
of
the
preoccupation
of
my
mind
.
"
"
And
I
hope
,
Ma
,
you
give
us
your
consent
and
wish
us
well
?
"
said
Caddy
.
"
You
are
a
nonsensical
child
to
have
done
anything
of
this
kind
,
"
said
Mrs
.
Jellyby
;
"
and
a
degenerate
child
,
when
you
might
have
devoted
yourself
to
the
great
public
measure
.
But
the
step
is
taken
,
and
I
have
engaged
a
boy
,
and
there
is
no
more
to
be
said
.
Now
,
pray
,
Caddy
,
"
said
Mrs
.
Jellyby
,
for
Caddy
was
kissing
her
,
"
don
’
t
delay
me
in
my
work
,
but
let
me
clear
off
this
heavy
batch
of
papers
before
the
afternoon
post
comes
in
!
"
I
thought
I
could
not
do
better
than
take
my
leave
;
I
was
detained
for
a
moment
by
Caddy
’
s
saying
,
"
You
won
’
t
object
to
my
bringing
him
to
see
you
,
Ma
?
"
"
Oh
,
dear
me
,
Caddy
,
"
cried
Mrs
.
Jellyby
,
who
had
relapsed
into
that
distant
contemplation
,
"
have
you
begun
again
?
Bring
whom
?
"
"
Him
,
Ma
.
"
"
Caddy
,
Caddy
!
"
said
Mrs
.
Jellyby
,
quite
weary
of
such
little
matters
.
"
Then
you
must
bring
him
some
evening
which
is
not
a
Parent
Society
night
,
or
a
Branch
night
,
or
a
Ramification
night
.
You
must
accommodate
the
visit
to
the
demands
upon
my
time
.
My
dear
Miss
Summerson
,
it
was
very
kind
of
you
to
come
here
to
help
out
this
silly
chit
.
