'
Merrylegs
and
nine
oils
,
eh
!
'
said
Mr.
Bounderby
,
entering
last
with
his
metallic
laugh
.
'
Pretty
well
this
,
for
a
self-made
man
!
'
The
name
of
the
public-house
was
the
Pegasus
's
Arms
.
The
Pegasus
's
legs
might
have
been
more
to
the
purpose
;
but
,
underneath
the
winged
horse
upon
the
sign-board
,
the
Pegasus
's
Arms
was
inscribed
in
Roman
letters
.
Beneath
that
inscription
again
,
in
a
flowing
scroll
,
the
painter
had
touched
off
the
lines
:
Good
malt
makes
good
beer
,
Walk
in
,
and
they
'll
draw
it
here
;
Good
wine
makes
good
brandy
,
Give
us
a
call
,
and
you
'll
find
it
handy
.
Framed
and
glazed
upon
the
wall
behind
the
dingy
little
bar
,
was
another
Pegasus
--
a
theatrical
one
--
with
real
gauze
let
in
for
his
wings
,
golden
stars
stuck
on
all
over
him
,
and
his
ethereal
harness
made
of
red
silk
.
As
it
had
grown
too
dusky
without
,
to
see
the
sign
,
and
as
it
had
not
grown
light
enough
within
to
see
the
picture
,
Mr.
Gradgrind
and
Mr.
Bounderby
received
no
offence
from
these
idealities
.
They
followed
the
girl
up
some
steep
corner-stairs
without
meeting
any
one
,
and
stopped
in
the
dark
while
she
went
on
for
a
candle
.
They
expected
every
moment
to
hear
Merrylegs
give
tongue
,
but
the
highly
trained
performing
dog
had
not
barked
when
the
girl
and
the
candle
appeared
together
.
'
Father
is
not
in
our
room
,
sir
,
'
she
said
,
with
a
face
of
great
surprise
.
'
If
you
would
n't
mind
walking
in
,
I
'll
find
him
directly
.
'
They
walked
in
;
and
Sissy
,
having
set
two
chairs
for
them
,
sped
away
with
a
quick
light
step
.
It
was
a
mean
,
shabbily
furnished
room
,
with
a
bed
in
it
.
The
white
night-cap
,
embellished
with
two
peacock
's
feathers
and
a
pigtail
bolt
upright
,
in
which
Signor
Jupe
had
that
very
afternoon
enlivened
the
varied
performances
with
his
chaste
Shaksperean
quips
and
retorts
,
hung
upon
a
nail
;
but
no
other
portion
of
his
wardrobe
,
or
other
token
of
himself
or
his
pursuits
,
was
to
be
seen
anywhere
.
As
to
Merrylegs
,
that
respectable
ancestor
of
the
highly
trained
animal
who
went
aboard
the
ark
,
might
have
been
accidentally
shut
out
of
it
,
for
any
sign
of
a
dog
that
was
manifest
to
eye
or
ear
in
the
Pegasus
's
Arms
.
