For
a
moment
the
lady
,
with
a
glass
at
her
eye
,
stood
transfixed
and
speechless
before
the
two
Miss
Dorrits
.
At
the
same
moment
,
Miss
Fanny
,
in
the
foreground
of
a
grand
pictorial
composition
,
formed
by
the
family
,
the
family
equipages
,
and
the
family
servants
,
held
her
sister
tight
under
one
arm
to
detain
her
on
the
spot
,
and
with
the
other
arm
fanned
herself
with
a
distinguished
air
,
and
negligently
surveyed
the
lady
from
head
to
foot
.
The
lady
,
recovering
herself
quickly
—
for
it
was
Mrs
Merdle
and
she
was
not
easily
dashed
—
went
on
to
add
that
she
trusted
in
saying
this
,
she
apologised
for
her
boldness
,
and
restored
this
well
-
behaved
landlord
to
the
favour
that
was
so
very
valuable
to
him
.
Mr
Dorrit
,
on
the
altar
of
whose
dignity
all
this
was
incense
,
made
a
gracious
reply
;
and
said
that
his
people
should
—
ha
—
countermand
his
horses
,
and
he
would
—
hum
—
overlook
what
he
had
at
first
supposed
to
be
an
affront
,
but
now
regarded
as
an
honour
.
Upon
this
the
bosom
bent
to
him
;
and
its
owner
,
with
a
wonderful
command
of
feature
,
addressed
a
winning
smile
of
adieu
to
the
two
sisters
,
as
young
ladies
of
fortune
in
whose
favour
she
was
much
prepossessed
,
and
whom
she
had
never
had
the
gratification
of
seeing
before
.
Not
so
,
however
,
Mr
Sparkler
.
This
gentleman
,
becoming
transfixed
at
the
same
moment
as
his
lady
-
mother
,
could
not
by
any
means
unfix
himself
again
,
but
stood
stiffly
staring
at
the
whole
composition
with
Miss
Fanny
in
the
Foreground
.
On
his
mother
saying
,
‘
Edmund
,
we
are
quite
ready
;
will
you
give
me
your
arm
?
’
he
seemed
,
by
the
motion
of
his
lips
,
to
reply
with
some
remark
comprehending
the
form
of
words
in
which
his
shining
talents
found
the
most
frequent
utterance
,
but
he
relaxed
no
muscle
.
So
fixed
was
his
figure
,
that
it
would
have
been
matter
of
some
difficulty
to
bend
him
sufficiently
to
get
him
in
the
carriage
-
door
,
if
he
had
not
received
the
timely
assistance
of
a
maternal
pull
from
within
.
He
was
no
sooner
within
than
the
pad
of
the
little
window
in
the
back
of
the
chariot
disappeared
,
and
his
eye
usurped
its
place
.
There
it
remained
as
long
as
so
small
an
object
was
discernible
,
and
probably
much
longer
,
staring
(
as
though
something
inexpressibly
surprising
should
happen
to
a
codfish
)
like
an
ill
-
executed
eye
in
a
large
locket
.
This
encounter
was
so
highly
agreeable
to
Miss
Fanny
,
and
gave
her
so
much
to
think
of
with
triumph
afterwards
,
that
it
softened
her
asperities
exceedingly
.
When
the
procession
was
again
in
motion
next
day
,
she
occupied
her
place
in
it
with
a
new
gaiety
;
and
showed
such
a
flow
of
spirits
indeed
,
that
Mrs
General
looked
rather
surprised
.
Little
Dorrit
was
glad
to
be
found
no
fault
with
,
and
to
see
that
Fanny
was
pleased
;
but
her
part
in
the
procession
was
a
musing
part
,
and
a
quiet
one
.
Sitting
opposite
her
father
in
the
travelling
-
carriage
,
and
recalling
the
old
Marshalsea
room
,
her
present
existence
was
a
dream
.
All
that
she
saw
was
new
and
wonderful
,
but
it
was
not
real
;
it
seemed
to
her
as
if
those
visions
of
mountains
and
picturesque
countries
might
melt
away
at
any
moment
,
and
the
carriage
,
turning
some
abrupt
corner
,
bring
up
with
a
jolt
at
the
old
Marshalsea
gate
.
To
have
no
work
to
do
was
strange
,
but
not
half
so
strange
as
having
glided
into
a
corner
where
she
had
no
one
to
think
for
,
nothing
to
plan
and
contrive
,
no
cares
of
others
to
load
herself
with
.
Strange
as
that
was
,
it
was
far
stranger
yet
to
find
a
space
between
herself
and
her
father
,
where
others
occupied
themselves
in
taking
care
of
him
,
and
where
she
was
never
expected
to
be
.
At
first
,
this
was
so
much
more
unlike
her
old
experience
than
even
the
mountains
themselves
,
that
she
had
been
unable
to
resign
herself
to
it
,
and
had
tried
to
retain
her
old
place
about
him
.
But
he
had
spoken
to
her
alone
,
and
had
said
that
people
—
ha
—
people
in
an
exalted
position
,
my
dear
,
must
scrupulously
exact
respect
from
their
dependents
;
and
that
for
her
,
his
daughter
,
Miss
Amy
Dorrit
,
of
the
sole
remaining
branch
of
the
Dorrits
of
Dorsetshire
,
to
be
known
to
—
hum
—
to
occupy
herself
in
fulfilling
the
functions
of
—
ha
hum
—
a
valet
,
would
be
incompatible
with
that
respect
.
Therefore
,
my
dear
,
he
—
ha
—
he
laid
his
parental
injunctions
upon
her
,
to
remember
that
she
was
a
lady
,
who
had
now
to
conduct
herself
with
—
hum
—
a
proper
pride
,
and
to
preserve
the
rank
of
a
lady
;
and
consequently
he
requested
her
to
abstain
from
doing
what
would
occasion
—
ha
—
unpleasant
and
derogatory
remarks
.
She
had
obeyed
without
a
murmur
.
Thus
it
had
been
brought
about
that
she
now
sat
in
her
corner
of
the
luxurious
carriage
with
her
little
patient
hands
folded
before
her
,
quite
displaced
even
from
the
last
point
of
the
old
standing
ground
in
life
on
which
her
feet
had
lingered
.
It
was
from
this
position
that
all
she
saw
appeared
unreal
;
the
more
surprising
the
scenes
,
the
more
they
resembled
the
unreality
of
her
own
inner
life
as
she
went
through
its
vacant
places
all
day
long
.
The
gorges
of
the
Simplon
,
its
enormous
depths
and
thundering
waterfalls
,
the
wonderful
road
,
the
points
of
danger
where
a
loose
wheel
or
a
faltering
horse
would
have
been
destruction
,
the
descent
into
Italy
,
the
opening
of
that
beautiful
land
as
the
rugged
mountain
-
chasm
widened
and
let
them
out
from
a
gloomy
and
dark
imprisonment
—
all
a
dream
—
only
the
old
mean
Marshalsea
a
reality
.
Nay
,
even
the
old
mean
Marshalsea
was
shaken
to
its
foundations
when
she
pictured
it
without
her
father
.
She
could
scarcely
believe
that
the
prisoners
were
still
lingering
in
the
close
yard
,
that
the
mean
rooms
were
still
every
one
tenanted
,
and
that
the
turnkey
still
stood
in
the
Lodge
letting
people
in
and
out
,
all
just
as
she
well
knew
it
to
be
.
