My
dear
girl
told
me
that
night
how
Richard
’
s
being
thereafter
prosperous
or
ruined
,
befriended
or
deserted
,
could
only
make
this
difference
to
her
,
that
the
more
he
needed
love
from
one
unchanging
heart
,
the
more
love
that
unchanging
heart
would
have
to
give
him
;
how
he
thought
of
her
through
his
present
errors
,
and
she
would
think
of
him
at
all
times
—
never
of
herself
if
she
could
devote
herself
to
him
,
never
of
her
own
delights
if
she
could
minister
to
his
.
And
she
kept
her
word
?
I
look
along
the
road
before
me
,
where
the
distance
already
shortens
and
the
journey
’
s
end
is
growing
visible
;
and
true
and
good
above
the
dead
sea
of
the
Chancery
suit
and
all
the
ashy
fruit
it
cast
ashore
,
I
think
I
see
my
darling
.
When
our
time
came
for
returning
to
Bleak
House
again
,
we
were
punctual
to
the
day
and
were
received
with
an
overpowering
welcome
.
I
was
perfectly
restored
to
health
and
strength
,
and
finding
my
housekeeping
keys
laid
ready
for
me
in
my
room
,
rang
myself
in
as
if
I
had
been
a
new
year
,
with
a
merry
little
peal
.
"
Once
more
,
duty
,
duty
,
Esther
,
"
said
I
;
"
and
if
you
are
not
overjoyed
to
do
it
,
more
than
cheerfully
and
contentedly
,
through
anything
and
everything
,
you
ought
to
be
.
That
’
s
all
I
have
to
say
to
you
,
my
dear
!
"
The
first
few
mornings
were
mornings
of
so
much
bustle
and
business
,
devoted
to
such
settlements
of
accounts
,
such
repeated
journeys
to
and
fro
between
the
growlery
and
all
other
parts
of
the
house
,
so
many
rearrangements
of
drawers
and
presses
,
and
such
a
general
new
beginning
altogether
,
that
I
had
not
a
moment
’
s
leisure
.
But
when
these
arrangements
were
completed
and
everything
was
in
order
,
I
paid
a
visit
of
a
few
hours
to
London
,
which
something
in
the
letter
I
had
destroyed
at
Chesney
Wold
had
induced
me
to
decide
upon
in
my
own
mind
.
I
made
Caddy
Jellyby
—
her
maiden
name
was
so
natural
to
me
that
I
always
called
her
by
it
—
the
pretext
for
this
visit
and
wrote
her
a
note
previously
asking
the
favour
of
her
company
on
a
little
business
expedition
.
Leaving
home
very
early
in
the
morning
,
I
got
to
London
by
stage
-
coach
in
such
good
time
that
I
got
to
Newman
Street
with
the
day
before
me
.
Caddy
,
who
had
not
seen
me
since
her
wedding
-
day
,
was
so
glad
and
so
affectionate
that
I
was
half
inclined
to
fear
I
should
make
her
husband
jealous
.
But
he
was
,
in
his
way
,
just
as
bad
—
I
mean
as
good
;
and
in
short
it
was
the
old
story
,
and
nobody
would
leave
me
any
possibility
of
doing
anything
meritorious
.
The
elder
Mr
.
Turveydrop
was
in
bed
,
I
found
,
and
Caddy
was
milling
his
chocolate
,
which
a
melancholy
little
boy
who
was
an
apprentice
—
it
seemed
such
a
curious
thing
to
be
apprenticed
to
the
trade
of
dancing
—
was
waiting
to
carry
upstairs
.
Her
father
-
in
-
law
was
extremely
kind
and
considerate
,
Caddy
told
me
,
and
they
lived
most
happily
together
.
(
When
she
spoke
of
their
living
together
,
she
meant
that
the
old
gentleman
had
all
the
good
things
and
all
the
good
lodging
,
while
she
and
her
husband
had
what
they
could
get
,
and
were
poked
into
two
corner
rooms
over
the
Mews
.
)
"
And
how
is
your
mama
,
Caddy
?
"
said
I
.
"
Why
,
I
hear
of
her
,
Esther
,
"
replied
Caddy
,
"
through
Pa
,
but
I
see
very
little
of
her
.
We
are
good
friends
,
I
am
glad
to
say
,
but
Ma
thinks
there
is
something
absurd
in
my
having
married
a
dancing
-
master
,
and
she
is
rather
afraid
of
its
extending
to
her
.
"
It
struck
me
that
if
Mrs
.
Jellyby
had
discharged
her
own
natural
duties
and
obligations
before
she
swept
the
horizon
with
a
telescope
in
search
of
others
,
she
would
have
taken
the
best
precautions
against
becoming
absurd
,
but
I
need
scarcely
observe
that
I
kept
this
to
myself
.
"
And
your
papa
,
Caddy
?
"
"
He
comes
here
every
evening
,
"
returned
Caddy
,
"
and
is
so
fond
of
sitting
in
the
corner
there
that
it
’
s
a
treat
to
see
him
.
"
Looking
at
the
corner
,
I
plainly
perceived
the
mark
of
Mr
.
Jellyby
’
s
head
against
the
wall
.
It
was
consolatory
to
know
that
he
had
found
such
a
resting
-
place
for
it
.
"
And
you
,
Caddy
,
"
said
I
,
"
you
are
always
busy
,
I
’
ll
be
bound
?
"
"
Well
,
my
dear
,
"
returned
Caddy
,
"
I
am
indeed
,
for
to
tell
you
a
grand
secret
,
I
am
qualifying
myself
to
give
lessons
.
Prince
’
s
health
is
not
strong
,
and
I
want
to
be
able
to
assist
him
.
What
with
schools
,
and
classes
here
,
and
private
pupils
,
AND
the
apprentices
,
he
really
has
too
much
to
do
,
poor
fellow
!
"
The
notion
of
the
apprentices
was
still
so
odd
to
me
that
I
asked
Caddy
if
there
were
many
of
them
.
"
Four
,
"
said
Caddy
.
"
One
in
-
door
,
and
three
out
.
They
are
very
good
children
;
only
when
they
get
together
they
WILL
play
—
children
-
like
—
instead
of
attending
to
their
work
.
So
the
little
boy
you
saw
just
now
waltzes
by
himself
in
the
empty
kitchen
,
and
we
distribute
the
others
over
the
house
as
well
as
we
can
.
"
"
That
is
only
for
their
steps
,
of
course
?
"
said
I
.
"
Only
for
their
steps
,
"
said
Caddy
.
"
In
that
way
they
practise
,
so
many
hours
at
a
time
,
whatever
steps
they
happen
to
be
upon
.
They
dance
in
the
academy
,
and
at
this
time
of
year
we
do
figures
at
five
every
morning
.
"
"
Why
,
what
a
laborious
life
!
"
I
exclaimed
.
"
I
assure
you
,
my
dear
,
"
returned
Caddy
,
smiling
,
"
when
the
out
-
door
apprentices
ring
us
up
in
the
morning
(
the
bell
rings
into
our
room
,
not
to
disturb
old
Mr
.
Turveydrop
)
,
and
when
I
put
up
the
window
and
see
them
standing
on
the
door
-
step
with
their
little
pumps
under
their
arms
,
I
am
actually
reminded
of
the
Sweeps
.
"
All
this
presented
the
art
to
me
in
a
singular
light
,
to
be
sure
.
Caddy
enjoyed
the
effect
of
her
communication
and
cheerfully
recounted
the
particulars
of
her
own
studies
.
"
You
see
,
my
dear
,
to
save
expense
I
ought
to
know
something
of
the
piano
,
and
I
ought
to
know
something
of
the
kit
too
,
and
consequently
I
have
to
practise
those
two
instruments
as
well
as
the
details
of
our
profession
.
If
Ma
had
been
like
anybody
else
,
I
might
have
had
some
little
musical
knowledge
to
begin
upon
.
However
,
I
hadn
’
t
any
;
and
that
part
of
the
work
is
,
at
first
,
a
little
discouraging
,
I
must
allow
.
But
I
have
a
very
good
ear
,
and
I
am
used
to
drudgery
—
I
have
to
thank
Ma
for
that
,
at
all
events
—
and
where
there
’
s
a
will
there
’
s
a
way
,
you
know
,
Esther
,
the
world
over
.
"
Saying
these
words
,
Caddy
laughingly
sat
down
at
a
little
jingling
square
piano
and
really
rattled
off
a
quadrille
with
great
spirit
.
Then
she
good
-
humouredly
and
blushingly
got
up
again
,
and
while
she
still
laughed
herself
,
said
,
"
Don
’
t
laugh
at
me
,
please
;
that
’
s
a
dear
girl
!
"
I
would
sooner
have
cried
,
but
I
did
neither
.
I
encouraged
her
and
praised
her
with
all
my
heart
.
For
I
conscientiously
believed
,
dancing
-
master
’
s
wife
though
she
was
,
and
dancing
-
mistress
though
in
her
limited
ambition
she
aspired
to
be
,
she
had
struck
out
a
natural
,
wholesome
,
loving
course
of
industry
and
perseverance
that
was
quite
as
good
as
a
mission
.
"
My
dear
,
"
said
Caddy
,
delighted
,
"
you
can
’
t
think
how
you
cheer
me
.
I
shall
owe
you
,
you
don
’
t
know
how
much
.
What
changes
,
Esther
,
even
in
my
small
world
!
You
recollect
that
first
night
,
when
I
was
so
unpolite
and
inky
?
Who
would
have
thought
,
then
,
of
my
ever
teaching
people
to
dance
,
of
all
other
possibilities
and
impossibilities
!
"
Her
husband
,
who
had
left
us
while
we
had
this
chat
,
now
coming
back
,
preparatory
to
exercising
the
apprentices
in
the
ball
-
room
,
Caddy
informed
me
she
was
quite
at
my
disposal
.
But
it
was
not
my
time
yet
,
I
was
glad
to
tell
her
,
for
I
should
have
been
vexed
to
take
her
away
then
.
Therefore
we
three
adjourned
to
the
apprentices
together
,
and
I
made
one
in
the
dance
.
The
apprentices
were
the
queerest
little
people
.
Besides
the
melancholy
boy
,
who
,
I
hoped
,
had
not
been
made
so
by
waltzing
alone
in
the
empty
kitchen
,
there
were
two
other
boys
and
one
dirty
little
limp
girl
in
a
gauzy
dress
.
Such
a
precocious
little
girl
,
with
such
a
dowdy
bonnet
on
(
that
,
too
,
of
a
gauzy
texture
)
,
who
brought
her
sandalled
shoes
in
an
old
threadbare
velvet
reticule
.
Such
mean
little
boys
,
when
they
were
not
dancing
,
with
string
,
and
marbles
,
and
cramp
-
bones
in
their
pockets
,
and
the
most
untidy
legs
and
feet
—
and
heels
particularly
.
I
asked
Caddy
what
had
made
their
parents
choose
this
profession
for
them
.
Caddy
said
she
didn
’
t
know
;
perhaps
they
were
designed
for
teachers
,
perhaps
for
the
stage
.
They
were
all
people
in
humble
circumstances
,
and
the
melancholy
boy
’
s
mother
kept
a
ginger
-
beer
shop
.
We
danced
for
an
hour
with
great
gravity
,
the
melancholy
child
doing
wonders
with
his
lower
extremities
,
in
which
there
appeared
to
be
some
sense
of
enjoyment
though
it
never
rose
above
his
waist
.
Caddy
,
while
she
was
observant
of
her
husband
and
was
evidently
founded
upon
him
,
had
acquired
a
grace
and
self
-
possession
of
her
own
,
which
,
united
to
her
pretty
face
and
figure
,
was
uncommonly
agreeable
.
She
already
relieved
him
of
much
of
the
instruction
of
these
young
people
,
and
he
seldom
interfered
except
to
walk
his
part
in
the
figure
if
he
had
anything
to
do
in
it
.
He
always
played
the
tune
.
The
affectation
of
the
gauzy
child
,
and
her
condescension
to
the
boys
,
was
a
sight
.
And
thus
we
danced
an
hour
by
the
clock
.
When
the
practice
was
concluded
,
Caddy
’
s
husband
made
himself
ready
to
go
out
of
town
to
a
school
,
and
Caddy
ran
away
to
get
ready
to
go
out
with
me
.
I
sat
in
the
ball
-
room
in
the
interval
,
contemplating
the
apprentices
.
The
two
out
-
door
boys
went
upon
the
staircase
to
put
on
their
half
-
boots
and
pull
the
in
-
door
boy
’
s
hair
,
as
I
judged
from
the
nature
of
his
objections
.
Returning
with
their
jackets
buttoned
and
their
pumps
stuck
in
them
,
they
then
produced
packets
of
cold
bread
and
meat
and
bivouacked
under
a
painted
lyre
on
the
wall
.
The
little
gauzy
child
,
having
whisked
her
sandals
into
the
reticule
and
put
on
a
trodden
-
down
pair
of
shoes
,
shook
her
head
into
the
dowdy
bonnet
at
one
shake
,
and
answering
my
inquiry
whether
she
liked
dancing
by
replying
,
"
Not
with
boys
,
"
tied
it
across
her
chin
,
and
went
home
contemptuous
.
"
Old
Mr
.
Turveydrop
is
so
sorry
,
"
said
Caddy
,
"
that
he
has
not
finished
dressing
yet
and
cannot
have
the
pleasure
of
seeing
you
before
you
go
.
You
are
such
a
favourite
of
his
,
Esther
.
"
I
expressed
myself
much
obliged
to
him
,
but
did
not
think
it
necessary
to
add
that
I
readily
dispensed
with
this
attention
.
"
It
takes
him
a
long
time
to
dress
,
"
said
Caddy
,
"
because
he
is
very
much
looked
up
to
in
such
things
,
you
know
,
and
has
a
reputation
to
support
.
You
can
’
t
think
how
kind
he
is
to
Pa
.
He
talks
to
Pa
of
an
evening
about
the
Prince
Regent
,
and
I
never
saw
Pa
so
interested
.
"
There
was
something
in
the
picture
of
Mr
.
Turveydrop
bestowing
his
deportment
on
Mr
.
Jellyby
that
quite
took
my
fancy
.
I
asked
Caddy
if
he
brought
her
papa
out
much
.
"
No
,
"
said
Caddy
,
"
I
don
’
t
know
that
he
does
that
,
but
he
talks
to
Pa
,
and
Pa
greatly
admires
him
,
and
listens
,
and
likes
it
.
Of
course
I
am
aware
that
Pa
has
hardly
any
claims
to
deportment
,
but
they
get
on
together
delightfully
.
You
can
’
t
think
what
good
companions
they
make
.
I
never
saw
Pa
take
snuff
before
in
my
life
,
but
he
takes
one
pinch
out
of
Mr
.
Turveydrop
’
s
box
regularly
and
keeps
putting
it
to
his
nose
and
taking
it
away
again
all
the
evening
.
"
That
old
Mr
.
Turveydrop
should
ever
,
in
the
chances
and
changes
of
life
,
have
come
to
the
rescue
of
Mr
.
Jellyby
from
Borrioboola
-
Gha
appeared
to
me
to
be
one
of
the
pleasantest
of
oddities
.
"
As
to
Peepy
,
"
said
Caddy
with
a
little
hesitation
,
"
whom
I
was
most
afraid
of
—
next
to
having
any
family
of
my
own
,
Esther
—
as
an
inconvenience
to
Mr
.
Turveydrop
,
the
kindness
of
the
old
gentleman
to
that
child
is
beyond
everything
.
He
asks
to
see
him
,
my
dear
!
He
lets
him
take
the
newspaper
up
to
him
in
bed
;
he
gives
him
the
crusts
of
his
toast
to
eat
;
he
sends
him
on
little
errands
about
the
house
;
he
tells
him
to
come
to
me
for
sixpences
.
In
short
,
"
said
Caddy
cheerily
,
"
and
not
to
prose
,
I
am
a
very
fortunate
girl
and
ought
to
be
very
grateful
.
Where
are
we
going
,
Esther
?
"
"
To
the
Old
Street
Road
,
"
said
I
,
"
where
I
have
a
few
words
to
say
to
the
solicitor
’
s
clerk
who
was
sent
to
meet
me
at
the
coach
-
office
on
the
very
day
when
I
came
to
London
and
first
saw
you
,
my
dear
.
Now
I
think
of
it
,
the
gentleman
who
brought
us
to
your
house
.
"
"
Then
,
indeed
,
I
seem
to
be
naturally
the
person
to
go
with
you
,
"
returned
Caddy
.
To
the
Old
Street
Road
we
went
and
there
inquired
at
Mrs
.
Guppy
’
s
residence
for
Mrs
.
Guppy
.
Mrs
.
Guppy
,
occupying
the
parlours
and
having
indeed
been
visibly
in
danger
of
cracking
herself
like
a
nut
in
the
front
-
parlour
door
by
peeping
out
before
she
was
asked
for
,
immediately
presented
herself
and
requested
us
to
walk
in
.
She
was
an
old
lady
in
a
large
cap
,
with
rather
a
red
nose
and
rather
an
unsteady
eye
,
but
smiling
all
over
.
Her
close
little
sitting
-
room
was
prepared
for
a
visit
,
and
there
was
a
portrait
of
her
son
in
it
which
,
I
had
almost
written
here
,
was
more
like
than
life
:
it
insisted
upon
him
with
such
obstinacy
,
and
was
so
determined
not
to
let
him
off
.
Not
only
was
the
portrait
there
,
but
we
found
the
original
there
too
.
He
was
dressed
in
a
great
many
colours
and
was
discovered
at
a
table
reading
law
-
papers
with
his
forefinger
to
his
forehead
.
"
Miss
Summerson
,
"
said
Mr
.
Guppy
,
rising
,
"
this
is
indeed
an
oasis
.
Mother
,
will
you
be
so
good
as
to
put
a
chair
for
the
other
lady
and
get
out
of
the
gangway
.
"
Mrs
.
Guppy
,
whose
incessant
smiling
gave
her
quite
a
waggish
appearance
,
did
as
her
son
requested
and
then
sat
down
in
a
corner
,
holding
her
pocket
handkerchief
to
her
chest
,
like
a
fomentation
,
with
both
hands
.
I
presented
Caddy
,
and
Mr
.
Guppy
said
that
any
friend
of
mine
was
more
than
welcome
.
I
then
proceeded
to
the
object
of
my
visit
.
"
I
took
the
liberty
of
sending
you
a
note
,
sir
,
"
said
I
.
Mr
.
Guppy
acknowledged
the
receipt
by
taking
it
out
of
his
breast
-
pocket
,
putting
it
to
his
lips
,
and
returning
it
to
his
pocket
with
a
bow
.
Mr
.
Guppy
’
s
mother
was
so
diverted
that
she
rolled
her
head
as
she
smiled
and
made
a
silent
appeal
to
Caddy
with
her
elbow
.
"
Could
I
speak
to
you
alone
for
a
moment
?
"
said
I
.
Anything
like
the
jocoseness
of
Mr
.
Guppy
’
s
mother
just
now
,
I
think
I
never
saw
.
She
made
no
sound
of
laughter
,
but
she
rolled
her
head
,
and
shook
it
,
and
put
her
handkerchief
to
her
mouth
,
and
appealed
to
Caddy
with
her
elbow
,
and
her
hand
,
and
her
shoulder
,
and
was
so
unspeakably
entertained
altogether
that
it
was
with
some
difficulty
she
could
marshal
Caddy
through
the
little
folding
-
door
into
her
bedroom
adjoining
.
"
Miss
Summerson
,
"
said
Mr
.
Guppy
,
"
you
will
excuse
the
waywardness
of
a
parent
ever
mindful
of
a
son
’
s
appiness
.
My
mother
,
though
highly
exasperating
to
the
feelings
,
is
actuated
by
maternal
dictates
.
"
I
could
hardly
have
believed
that
anybody
could
in
a
moment
have
turned
so
red
or
changed
so
much
as
Mr
.
Guppy
did
when
I
now
put
up
my
veil
.
