They
have
done
that
,
ma'am
,
'
returned
Bitzer
;
'
but
it
rather
fell
through
,
ma'am
.
'
'
I
do
not
pretend
to
understand
these
things
,
'
said
Mrs.
Sparsit
,
with
dignity
,
'
my
lot
having
been
signally
cast
in
a
widely
different
sphere
;
and
Mr.
Sparsit
,
as
a
Powler
,
being
also
quite
out
of
the
pale
of
any
such
dissensions
.
I
only
know
that
these
people
must
be
conquered
,
and
that
it
's
high
time
it
was
done
,
once
for
all
.
'
'
Yes
,
ma'am
,
'
returned
Bitzer
,
with
a
demonstration
of
great
respect
for
Mrs.
Sparsit
's
oracular
authority
.
'
You
could
n't
put
it
clearer
,
I
am
sure
,
ma'am
.
'
As
this
was
his
usual
hour
for
having
a
little
confidential
chat
with
Mrs.
Sparsit
,
and
as
he
had
already
caught
her
eye
and
seen
that
she
was
going
to
ask
him
something
,
he
made
a
pretence
of
arranging
the
rulers
,
inkstands
,
and
so
forth
,
while
that
lady
went
on
with
her
tea
,
glancing
through
the
open
window
,
down
into
the
street
.
'
Has
it
been
a
busy
day
,
Bitzer
?
'
asked
Mrs.
Sparsit
.
'
Not
a
very
busy
day
,
my
lady
.
About
an
average
day
.
'
He
now
and
then
slided
into
my
lady
,
instead
of
ma'am
,
as
an
involuntary
acknowledgment
of
Mrs.
Sparsit
's
personal
dignity
and
claims
to
reverence
.
'
The
clerks
,
'
said
Mrs.
Sparsit
,
carefully
brushing
an
imperceptible
crumb
of
bread
and
butter
from
her
left-hand
mitten
,
'
are
trustworthy
,
punctual
,
and
industrious
,
of
course
?
'
'
Yes
,
ma'am
,
pretty
fair
,
ma'am
.
With
the
usual
exception
.
'
He
held
the
respectable
office
of
general
spy
and
informer
in
the
establishment
,
for
which
volunteer
service
he
received
a
present
at
Christmas
,
over
and
above
his
weekly
wage
.
He
had
grown
into
an
extremely
clear-headed
,
cautious
,
prudent
young
man
,
who
was
safe
to
rise
in
the
world
.
His
mind
was
so
exactly
regulated
,
that
he
had
no
affections
or
passions
.
All
his
proceedings
were
the
result
of
the
nicest
and
coldest
calculation
;
and
it
was
not
without
cause
that
Mrs.
Sparsit
habitually
observed
of
him
,
that
he
was
a
young
man
of
the
steadiest
principle
she
had
ever
known
.
Having
satisfied
himself
,
on
his
father
's
death
,
that
his
mother
had
a
right
of
settlement
in
Coketown
,
this
excellent
young
economist
had
asserted
that
right
for
her
with
such
a
steadfast
adherence
to
the
principle
of
the
case
,
that
she
had
been
shut
up
in
the
workhouse
ever
since
.
It
must
be
admitted
that
he
allowed
her
half
a
pound
of
tea
a
year
,
which
was
weak
in
him
:
first
,
because
all
gifts
have
an
inevitable
tendency
to
pauperise
the
recipient
,
and
secondly
,
because
his
only
reasonable
transaction
in
that
commodity
would
have
been
to
buy
it
for
as
little
as
he
could
possibly
give
,
and
sell
it
for
as
much
as
he
could
possibly
get
;
it
having
been
clearly
ascertained
by
philosophers
that
in
this
is
comprised
the
whole
duty
of
man
--
not
a
part
of
man
's
duty
,
but
the
whole
.
