Pray
how
did
you
introduce
her
at
my
mother
’
s
!
’
Mr
Plornish
picked
a
bit
of
lime
out
of
his
whisker
,
put
it
between
his
lips
,
turned
it
with
his
tongue
like
a
sugar
-
plum
,
considered
,
found
himself
unequal
to
the
task
of
lucid
explanation
,
and
appealing
to
his
wife
,
said
,
‘
Sally
,
you
may
as
well
mention
how
it
was
,
old
woman
.
’
‘
Miss
Dorrit
,
’
said
Sally
,
hushing
the
baby
from
side
to
side
,
and
laying
her
chin
upon
the
little
hand
as
it
tried
to
disarrange
the
gown
again
,
‘
came
here
one
afternoon
with
a
bit
of
writing
,
telling
that
how
she
wished
for
needlework
,
and
asked
if
it
would
be
considered
any
ill
-
conwenience
in
case
she
was
to
give
her
address
here
.
’
(
Plornish
repeated
,
her
address
here
,
in
a
low
voice
,
as
if
he
were
making
responses
at
church
.
)
‘
Me
and
Plornish
says
,
No
,
Miss
Dorrit
,
no
ill
-
conwenience
,
’
(
Plornish
repeated
,
no
ill
-
conwenience
,
)
‘
and
she
wrote
it
in
,
according
.
Which
then
me
and
Plornish
says
,
Ho
Miss
Dorrit
!
’
(
Plornish
repeated
,
Ho
Miss
Dorrit
.
)
‘
Have
you
thought
of
copying
it
three
or
four
times
,
as
the
way
to
make
it
known
in
more
places
than
one
?
No
,
says
Miss
Dorrit
,
I
have
not
,
but
I
will
.
She
copied
it
out
according
,
on
this
table
,
in
a
sweet
writing
,
and
Plornish
,
he
took
it
where
he
worked
,
having
a
job
just
then
,
’
(
Plornish
repeated
job
just
then
,
)
‘
and
likewise
to
the
landlord
of
the
Yard
;
through
which
it
was
that
Mrs
Clennam
first
happened
to
employ
Miss
Dorrit
.
’
Plornish
repeated
,
employ
Miss
Dorrit
;
and
Mrs
Plornish
having
come
to
an
end
,
feigned
to
bite
the
fingers
of
the
little
hand
as
she
kissed
it
.
‘
The
landlord
of
the
Yard
,
’
said
Arthur
Clennam
,
‘
is
—
’
‘
He
is
Mr
Casby
,
by
name
,
he
is
,
’
said
Plornish
,
‘
and
Pancks
,
he
collects
the
rents
.
That
,
’
added
Mr
Plornish
,
dwelling
on
the
subject
with
a
slow
thoughtfulness
that
appeared
to
have
no
connection
with
any
specific
object
,
and
to
lead
him
nowhere
,
‘
that
is
about
what
they
are
,
you
may
believe
me
or
not
,
as
you
think
proper
.
’
‘
Ay
?
’
returned
Clennam
,
thoughtful
in
his
turn
.
‘
Mr
Casby
,
too
!
An
old
acquaintance
of
mine
,
long
ago
!
’
Mr
Plornish
did
not
see
his
road
to
any
comment
on
this
fact
,
and
made
none
.
As
there
truly
was
no
reason
why
he
should
have
the
least
interest
in
it
,
Arthur
Clennam
went
on
to
the
present
purport
of
his
visit
;
namely
,
to
make
Plornish
the
instrument
of
effecting
Tip
’
s
release
,
with
as
little
detriment
as
possible
to
the
self
-
reliance
and
self
-
helpfulness
of
the
young
man
,
supposing
him
to
possess
any
remnant
of
those
qualities
:
without
doubt
a
very
wide
stretch
of
supposition
.
Plornish
,
having
been
made
acquainted
with
the
cause
of
action
from
the
Defendant
’
s
own
mouth
,
gave
Arthur
to
understand
that
the
Plaintiff
was
a
‘
Chaunter
’
—
meaning
,
not
a
singer
of
anthems
,
but
a
seller
of
horses
—
and
that
he
(
Plornish
)
considered
that
ten
shillings
in
the
pound
‘
would
settle
handsome
,
’
and
that
more
would
be
a
waste
of
money
.
The
Principal
and
instrument
soon
drove
off
together
to
a
stable
-
yard
in
High
Holborn
,
where
a
remarkably
fine
grey
gelding
,
worth
,
at
the
lowest
figure
,
seventy
-
five
guineas
(
not
taking
into
account
the
value
of
the
shot
he
had
been
made
to
swallow
for
the
improvement
of
his
form
)
,
was
to
be
parted
with
for
a
twenty
-
pound
note
,
in
consequence
of
his
having
run
away
last
week
with
Mrs
Captain
Barbary
of
Cheltenham
,
who
wasn
’
t
up
to
a
horse
of
his
courage
,
and
who
,
in
mere
spite
,
insisted
on
selling
him
for
that
ridiculous
sum
:
or
,
in
other
words
,
on
giving
him
away
.
Plornish
,
going
up
this
yard
alone
and
leaving
his
Principal
outside
,
found
a
gentleman
with
tight
drab
legs
,
a
rather
old
hat
,
a
little
hooked
stick
,
and
a
blue
neckerchief
(
Captain
Maroon
of
Gloucestershire
,
a
private
friend
of
Captain
Barbary
)
;
who
happened
to
be
there
,
in
a
friendly
way
,
to
mention
these
little
circumstances
concerning
the
remarkably
fine
grey
gelding
to
any
real
judge
of
a
horse
and
quick
snapper
-
up
of
a
good
thing
,
who
might
look
in
at
that
address
as
per
advertisement
.
This
gentleman
,
happening
also
to
be
the
Plaintiff
in
the
Tip
case
,
referred
Mr
Plornish
to
his
solicitor
,
and
declined
to
treat
with
Mr
Plornish
,
or
even
to
endure
his
presence
in
the
yard
,
unless
he
appeared
there
with
a
twenty
-
pound
note
:
in
which
case
only
,
the
gentleman
would
augur
from
appearances
that
he
meant
business
,
and
might
be
induced
to
talk
to
him
.
On
this
hint
,
Mr
Plornish
retired
to
communicate
with
his
Principal
,
and
presently
came
back
with
the
required
credentials
.
Then
said
Captain
Maroon
,
‘
Now
,
how
much
time
do
you
want
to
make
the
other
twenty
in
?
Now
,
I
’
ll
give
you
a
month
.
’
Then
said
Captain
Maroon
,
when
that
wouldn
’
t
suit
,
‘
Now
,
I
’
ll
tell
what
I
’
ll
do
with
you
.
You
shall
get
me
a
good
bill
at
four
months
,
made
payable
at
a
banking
-
house
,
for
the
other
twenty
!
’
Then
said
Captain
Maroon
,
when
that
wouldn
’
t
suit
,
‘
Now
,
come
;
Here
’
s
the
last
I
’
ve
got
to
say
to
you
.
You
shall
give
me
another
ten
down
,
and
I
’
ll
run
my
pen
clean
through
it
.
