I
had
previously
been
presented
by
my
aunt
,
and
had
been
courteously
received
.
He
now
said
:
‘
And
so
,
Mr
.
Copperfield
,
you
think
of
entering
into
our
profession
?
I
casually
mentioned
to
Miss
Trotwood
,
when
I
had
the
pleasure
of
an
interview
with
her
the
other
day
,
’
—
with
another
inclination
of
his
body
—
Punch
again
—
‘
that
there
was
a
vacancy
here
.
Miss
Trotwood
was
good
enough
to
mention
that
she
had
a
nephew
who
was
her
peculiar
care
,
and
for
whom
she
was
seeking
to
provide
genteelly
in
life
.
That
nephew
,
I
believe
,
I
have
now
the
pleasure
of
’
—
Punch
again
.
I
bowed
my
acknowledgements
,
and
said
,
my
aunt
had
mentioned
to
me
that
there
was
that
opening
,
and
that
I
believed
I
should
like
it
very
much
.
That
I
was
strongly
inclined
to
like
it
,
and
had
taken
immediately
to
the
proposal
.
That
I
could
not
absolutely
pledge
myself
to
like
it
,
until
I
knew
something
more
about
it
.
That
although
it
was
little
else
than
a
matter
of
form
,
I
presumed
I
should
have
an
opportunity
of
trying
how
I
liked
it
,
before
I
bound
myself
to
it
irrevocably
.
‘
Oh
surely
!
surely
!
’
said
Mr
.
Spenlow
.
‘
We
always
,
in
this
house
,
propose
a
month
—
an
initiatory
month
.
I
should
be
happy
,
myself
,
to
propose
two
months
—
three
—
an
indefinite
period
,
in
fact
—
but
I
have
a
partner
.
Mr
.
Jorkins
.
’
‘
And
the
premium
,
sir
,
’
I
returned
,
‘
is
a
thousand
pounds
?
’
‘
And
the
premium
,
Stamp
included
,
is
a
thousand
pounds
,
’
said
Mr
.
Spenlow
.
‘
As
I
have
mentioned
to
Miss
Trotwood
,
I
am
actuated
by
no
mercenary
considerations
;
few
men
are
less
so
,
I
believe
;
but
Mr
.
Jorkins
has
his
opinions
on
these
subjects
,
and
I
am
bound
to
respect
Mr
.
Jorkins
’
s
opinions
.
Mr
.
Jorkins
thinks
a
thousand
pounds
too
little
,
in
short
.
’
‘
I
suppose
,
sir
,
’
said
I
,
still
desiring
to
spare
my
aunt
,
‘
that
it
is
not
the
custom
here
,
if
an
articled
clerk
were
particularly
useful
,
and
made
himself
a
perfect
master
of
his
profession
’
—
I
could
not
help
blushing
,
this
looked
so
like
praising
myself
—
‘
I
suppose
it
is
not
the
custom
,
in
the
later
years
of
his
time
,
to
allow
him
any
—
—
’
Mr
.
Spenlow
,
by
a
great
effort
,
just
lifted
his
head
far
enough
out
of
his
cravat
to
shake
it
,
and
answered
,
anticipating
the
word
‘
salary
’
:
‘
No
.
I
will
not
say
what
consideration
I
might
give
to
that
point
myself
,
Mr
.
Copperfield
,
if
I
were
unfettered
.
Mr
.
Jorkins
is
immovable
.
’
I
was
quite
dismayed
by
the
idea
of
this
terrible
Jorkins
.
