For
the
first
time
in
her
life
Louisa
had
come
into
one
of
the
dwellings
of
the
Coketown
Hands
;
for
the
first
time
in
her
life
she
was
face
to
face
with
anything
like
individuality
in
connection
with
them
.
She
knew
of
their
existence
by
hundreds
and
by
thousands
.
She
knew
what
results
in
work
a
given
number
of
them
would
produce
in
a
given
space
of
time
.
She
knew
them
in
crowds
passing
to
and
from
their
nests
,
like
ants
or
beetles
.
But
she
knew
from
her
reading
infinitely
more
of
the
ways
of
toiling
insects
than
of
these
toiling
men
and
women
.
Something
to
be
worked
so
much
and
paid
so
much
,
and
there
ended
;
something
to
be
infallibly
settled
by
laws
of
supply
and
demand
;
something
that
blundered
against
those
laws
,
and
floundered
into
difficulty
;
something
that
was
a
little
pinched
when
wheat
was
dear
,
and
over-ate
itself
when
wheat
was
cheap
;
something
that
increased
at
such
a
rate
of
percentage
,
and
yielded
such
another
percentage
of
crime
,
and
such
another
percentage
of
pauperism
;
something
wholesale
,
of
which
vast
fortunes
were
made
;
something
that
occasionally
rose
like
a
sea
,
and
did
some
harm
and
waste
(
chiefly
to
itself
)
,
and
fell
again
;
this
she
knew
the
Coketown
Hands
to
be
.
But
,
she
had
scarcely
thought
more
of
separating
them
into
units
,
than
of
separating
the
sea
itself
into
its
component
drops
.
She
stood
for
some
moments
looking
round
the
room
.
From
the
few
chairs
,
the
few
books
,
the
common
prints
,
and
the
bed
,
she
glanced
to
the
two
women
,
and
to
Stephen
.
'
I
have
come
to
speak
to
you
,
in
consequence
of
what
passed
just
now
.
I
should
like
to
be
serviceable
to
you
,
if
you
will
let
me
.
Is
this
your
wife
?
'
Rachael
raised
her
eyes
,
and
they
sufficiently
answered
no
,
and
dropped
again
.
'
I
remember
,
'
said
Louisa
,
reddening
at
her
mistake
;
'
I
recollect
,
now
,
to
have
heard
your
domestic
misfortunes
spoken
of
,
though
I
was
not
attending
to
the
particulars
at
the
time
.
It
was
not
my
meaning
to
ask
a
question
that
would
give
pain
to
any
one
here
.
If
I
should
ask
any
other
question
that
may
happen
to
have
that
result
,
give
me
credit
,
if
you
please
,
for
being
in
ignorance
how
to
speak
to
you
as
I
ought
.
'
As
Stephen
had
but
a
little
while
ago
instinctively
addressed
himself
to
her
,
so
she
now
instinctively
addressed
herself
to
Rachael
.
Her
manner
was
short
and
abrupt
,
yet
faltering
and
timid
.
'
He
has
told
you
what
has
passed
between
himself
and
my
husband
?
You
would
be
his
first
resource
,
I
think
.
'
'
I
have
heard
the
end
of
it
,
young
lady
,
'
said
Rachael
.
'
Did
I
understand
,
that
,
being
rejected
by
one
employer
,
he
would
probably
be
rejected
by
all
?
I
thought
he
said
as
much
?
'
