That
affair
of
Henry
’
s
that
I
told
you
of
,
is
to
take
place
.
Now
,
how
does
it
strike
you
?
I
am
dying
to
know
,
because
you
represent
and
express
Society
so
well
.
’
Mrs
Merdle
reviewed
the
bosom
which
Society
was
accustomed
to
review
;
and
having
ascertained
that
show
-
window
of
Mr
Merdle
’
s
and
the
London
jewellers
’
to
be
in
good
order
,
replied
:
‘
As
to
marriage
on
the
part
of
a
man
,
my
dear
,
Society
requires
that
he
should
retrieve
his
fortunes
by
marriage
.
Society
requires
that
he
should
gain
by
marriage
.
Society
requires
that
he
should
found
a
handsome
establishment
by
marriage
.
Society
does
not
see
,
otherwise
,
what
he
has
to
do
with
marriage
.
Bird
,
be
quiet
!
’
For
the
parrot
on
his
cage
above
them
,
presiding
over
the
conference
as
if
he
were
a
judge
(
and
indeed
he
looked
rather
like
one
)
,
had
wound
up
the
exposition
with
a
shriek
.
‘
Cases
there
are
,
’
said
Mrs
Merdle
,
delicately
crooking
the
little
finger
of
her
favourite
hand
,
and
making
her
remarks
neater
by
that
neat
action
;
‘
cases
there
are
where
a
man
is
not
young
or
elegant
,
and
is
rich
,
and
has
a
handsome
establishment
already
.
Those
are
of
a
different
kind
.
In
such
cases
—
’
Mrs
Merdle
shrugged
her
snowy
shoulders
and
put
her
hand
upon
the
jewel
-
stand
,
checking
a
little
cough
,
as
though
to
add
,
‘
why
,
a
man
looks
out
for
this
sort
of
thing
,
my
dear
.
’
Then
the
parrot
shrieked
again
,
and
she
put
up
her
glass
to
look
at
him
,
and
said
,
‘
Bird
!
Do
be
quiet
!
’
‘
But
,
young
men
,
’
resumed
Mrs
Merdle
,
‘
and
by
young
men
you
know
what
I
mean
,
my
love
—
I
mean
people
’
s
sons
who
have
the
world
before
them
—
they
must
place
themselves
in
a
better
position
towards
Society
by
marriage
,
or
Society
really
will
not
have
any
patience
with
their
making
fools
of
themselves
.
Dreadfully
worldly
all
this
sounds
,
’
said
Mrs
Merdle
,
leaning
back
in
her
nest
and
putting
up
her
glass
again
,
‘
does
it
not
?
’
‘
But
it
is
true
,
’
said
Mrs
Gowan
,
with
a
highly
moral
air
.
‘
My
dear
,
it
is
not
to
be
disputed
for
a
moment
,
’
returned
Mrs
Merdle
;
‘
because
Society
has
made
up
its
mind
on
the
subject
,
and
there
is
nothing
more
to
be
said
.
If
we
were
in
a
more
primitive
state
,
if
we
lived
under
roofs
of
leaves
,
and
kept
cows
and
sheep
and
creatures
instead
of
banker
’
s
accounts
(
which
would
be
delicious
;
my
dear
,
I
am
pastoral
to
a
degree
,
by
nature
)
,
well
and
good
.
But
we
don
’
t
live
under
leaves
,
and
keep
cows
and
sheep
and
creatures
.
I
perfectly
exhaust
myself
sometimes
,
in
pointing
out
the
distinction
to
Edmund
Sparkler
.
