'
Oh
,
you
know
,
Mr.
Bumble
,
he
must
be
mad
,
'
said
Mrs.
Sowerberry
.
'
No
boy
in
half
his
senses
could
venture
to
speak
so
to
you
.
'
'
It
's
not
Madness
,
ma'am
,
'
replied
Mr.
Bumble
,
after
a
few
moments
of
deep
meditation
.
'
It
's
Meat
.
'
'
What
?
'
exclaimed
Mrs.
Sowerberry
.
'
Meat
,
ma'am
,
meat
,
'
replied
Bumble
,
with
stern
emphasis
.
'
You
've
over-fed
him
,
ma'am
.
You
've
raised
a
artificial
soul
and
spirit
in
him
,
ma'am
unbecoming
a
person
of
his
condition
:
as
the
board
,
Mrs.
Sowerberry
,
who
are
practical
philosophers
,
will
tell
you
.
What
have
paupers
to
do
with
soul
or
spirit
?
It
's
quite
enough
that
we
let
'em
have
live
bodies
.
If
you
had
kept
the
boy
on
gruel
,
ma'am
,
this
would
never
have
happened
.
'
'
Dear
,
dear
!
'
ejaculated
Mrs.
Sowerberry
,
piously
raising
her
eyes
to
the
kitchen
ceiling
:
'
this
comes
of
being
liberal
!
'
The
liberality
of
Mrs.
Sowerberry
to
Oliver
,
had
consisted
of
a
profuse
bestowal
upon
him
of
all
the
dirty
odds
and
ends
which
nobody
else
would
eat
;
so
there
was
a
great
deal
of
meekness
and
self-devotion
in
her
voluntarily
remaining
under
Mr.
Bumble
's
heavy
accusation
.
Of
which
,
to
do
her
justice
,
she
was
wholly
innocent
,
in
thought
,
word
,
or
deed
.
'
Ah
!
'
said
Mr.
Bumble
,
when
the
lady
brought
her
eyes
down
to
earth
again
;
'
the
only
thing
that
can
be
done
now
,
that
I
know
of
,
is
to
leave
him
in
the
cellar
for
a
day
or
so
,
till
he
's
a
little
starved
down
;
and
then
to
take
him
out
,
and
keep
him
on
gruel
all
through
the
apprenticeship
.
He
comes
of
a
bad
family
.
Excitable
natures
,
Mrs.
Sowerberry
!
Both
the
nurse
and
doctor
said
,
that
that
mother
of
his
made
her
way
here
,
against
difficulties
and
pain
that
would
have
killed
any
well-disposed
woman
,
weeks
before
.
'
At
this
point
of
Mr.
Bumble
's
discourse
,
Oliver
,
just
hearing
enough
to
know
that
some
allusion
was
being
made
to
his
mother
,
recommenced
kicking
,
with
a
violence
that
rendered
every
other
sound
inaudible
.
Sowerberry
returned
at
this
juncture
.
Oliver
's
offence
having
been
explained
to
him
,
with
such
exaggerations
as
the
ladies
thought
best
calculated
to
rouse
his
ire
,
he
unlocked
the
cellar-door
in
a
twinkling
,
and
dragged
his
rebellious
apprentice
out
,
by
the
collar
.
