accordingly
received
instructions
to
open
the
tortoise
-
shell
box
,
and
give
Mr
Merdle
the
tortoise
-
shell
knife
.
On
his
doing
so
,
his
wife
said
to
the
master
-
spirit
graciously
:
‘
I
will
forgive
you
,
if
you
ink
it
.
’
‘
I
’
ll
undertake
not
to
ink
it
,
’
said
Mr
Merdle
.
The
illustrious
visitor
then
put
out
his
coat
-
cuff
,
and
for
a
moment
entombed
Mrs
Sparkler
’
s
hand
:
wrist
,
bracelet
,
and
all
.
Where
his
own
hand
had
shrunk
to
,
was
not
made
manifest
,
but
it
was
as
remote
from
Mrs
Sparkler
’
s
sense
of
touch
as
if
he
had
been
a
highly
meritorious
Chelsea
Veteran
or
Greenwich
Pensioner
.
Thoroughly
convinced
,
as
he
went
out
of
the
room
,
that
it
was
the
longest
day
that
ever
did
come
to
an
end
at
last
,
and
that
there
never
was
a
woman
,
not
wholly
devoid
of
personal
attractions
,
so
worn
out
by
idiotic
and
lumpish
people
,
Fanny
passed
into
the
balcony
for
a
breath
of
air
.
Waters
of
vexation
filled
her
eyes
;
and
they
had
the
effect
of
making
the
famous
Mr
Merdle
,
in
going
down
the
street
,
appear
to
leap
,
and
waltz
,
and
gyrate
,
as
if
he
were
possessed
of
several
Devils
.
The
dinner
-
party
was
at
the
great
Physician
’
s
.
Bar
was
there
,
and
in
full
force
.
Ferdinand
Barnacle
was
there
,
and
in
his
most
engaging
state
.
Few
ways
of
life
were
hidden
from
Physician
,
and
he
was
oftener
in
its
darkest
places
than
even
Bishop
.
There
were
brilliant
ladies
about
London
who
perfectly
doted
on
him
,
my
dear
,
as
the
most
charming
creature
and
the
most
delightful
person
,
who
would
have
been
shocked
to
find
themselves
so
close
to
him
if
they
could
have
known
on
what
sights
those
thoughtful
eyes
of
his
had
rested
within
an
hour
or
two
,
and
near
to
whose
beds
,
and
under
what
roofs
,
his
composed
figure
had
stood
.
But
Physician
was
a
composed
man
,
who
performed
neither
on
his
own
trumpet
,
nor
on
the
trumpets
of
other
people
.
Many
wonderful
things
did
he
see
and
hear
,
and
much
irreconcilable
moral
contradiction
did
he
pass
his
life
among
;
yet
his
equality
of
compassion
was
no
more
disturbed
than
the
Divine
Master
’
s
of
all
healing
was
.
He
went
,
like
the
rain
,
among
the
just
and
unjust
,
doing
all
the
good
he
could
,
and
neither
proclaiming
it
in
the
synagogues
nor
at
the
corner
of
streets
.
As
no
man
of
large
experience
of
humanity
,
however
quietly
carried
it
may
be
,
can
fail
to
be
invested
with
an
interest
peculiar
to
the
possession
of
such
knowledge
,
Physician
was
an
attractive
man
.
Even
the
daintier
gentlemen
and
ladies
who
had
no
idea
of
his
secret
,
and
who
would
have
been
startled
out
of
more
wits
than
they
had
,
by
the
monstrous
impropriety
of
his
proposing
to
them
‘
Come
and
see
what
I
see
!
’
confessed
his
attraction
.
Where
he
was
,
something
real
was
.
And
half
a
grain
of
reality
,
like
the
smallest
portion
of
some
other
scarce
natural
productions
,
will
flavour
an
enormous
quantity
of
diluent
.
It
came
to
pass
,
therefore
,
that
Physician
’
s
little
dinners
always
presented
people
in
their
least
conventional
lights
.
The
guests
said
to
themselves
,
whether
they
were
conscious
of
it
or
no
,
‘
Here
is
a
man
who
really
has
an
acquaintance
with
us
as
we
are
,
who
is
admitted
to
some
of
us
every
day
with
our
wigs
and
paint
off
,
who
hears
the
wanderings
of
our
minds
,
and
sees
the
undisguised
expression
of
our
faces
,
when
both
are
past
our
control
;
we
may
as
well
make
an
approach
to
reality
with
him
,
for
the
man
has
got
the
better
of
us
and
is
too
strong
for
us
.
’
Therefore
,
Physician
’
s
guests
came
out
so
surprisingly
at
his
round
table
that
they
were
almost
natural
.
Bar
’
s
knowledge
of
that
agglomeration
of
jurymen
which
is
called
humanity
was
as
sharp
as
a
razor
;
yet
a
razor
is
not
a
generally
convenient
instrument
,
and
Physician
’
s
plain
bright
scalpel
,
though
far
less
keen
,
was
adaptable
to
far
wider
purposes
.
Bar
knew
all
about
the
gullibility
and
knavery
of
people
;
but
Physician
could
have
given
him
a
better
insight
into
their
tendernesses
and
affections
,
in
one
week
of
his
rounds
,
than
Westminster
Hall
and
all
the
circuits
put
together
,
in
threescore
years
and
ten
.
Bar
always
had
a
suspicion
of
this
,
and
perhaps
was
glad
to
encourage
it
(
for
,
if
the
world
were
really
a
great
Law
Court
,
one
would
think
that
the
last
day
of
Term
could
not
too
soon
arrive
)
;
and
so
he
liked
and
respected
Physician
quite
as
much
as
any
other
kind
of
man
did
.
