‘
If
you
will
do
me
the
favour
,
’
he
said
,
holding
up
the
green
shade
,
and
revealing
an
eye
most
horribly
discoloured
,
‘
to
look
at
this
,
you
will
naturally
inquire
,
in
your
own
minds
,
how
did
I
get
it
.
If
you
look
from
that
,
to
my
face
,
you
will
wonder
what
could
have
been
the
cause
of
all
these
scratches
.
And
if
from
them
to
my
hat
,
how
it
came
into
the
state
in
which
you
see
it
.
Gentlemen
,
’
said
Brass
,
striking
the
hat
fiercely
with
his
clenched
hand
,
‘
to
all
these
questions
I
answer
—
Quilp
!
’
The
three
gentlemen
looked
at
each
other
,
but
said
nothing
.
‘
I
say
,
’
pursued
Brass
,
glancing
aside
at
his
sister
,
as
though
he
were
talking
for
her
information
,
and
speaking
with
a
snarling
malignity
,
in
violent
contrast
to
his
usual
smoothness
,
‘
that
I
answer
to
all
these
questions
,
—
Quilp
—
Quilp
,
who
deludes
me
into
his
infernal
den
,
and
takes
a
delight
in
looking
on
and
chuckling
while
I
scorch
,
and
burn
,
and
bruise
,
and
maim
myself
—
Quilp
,
who
never
once
,
no
never
once
,
in
all
our
communications
together
,
has
treated
me
otherwise
than
as
a
dog
—
Quilp
,
whom
I
have
always
hated
with
my
whole
heart
,
but
never
so
much
as
lately
.
He
gives
me
the
cold
shoulder
on
this
very
matter
as
if
he
had
had
nothing
to
do
with
it
,
instead
of
being
the
first
to
propose
it
.
I
can
’
t
trust
him
.
In
one
of
his
howling
,
raving
,
blazing
humours
,
I
believe
he
’
d
let
it
out
,
if
it
was
murder
,
and
never
think
of
himself
so
long
as
he
could
terrify
me
.
Now
,
’
said
Brass
,
picking
up
his
hat
again
and
replacing
the
shade
over
his
eye
,
and
actually
crouching
down
,
in
the
excess
of
his
servility
,
‘
what
does
all
this
lead
to
?
—
what
should
you
say
it
led
me
to
,
gentlemen
?
—
could
you
guess
at
all
near
the
mark
?
’
Nobody
spoke
.
Brass
stood
smirking
for
a
little
while
,
as
if
he
had
propounded
some
choice
conundrum
;
and
then
said
:
‘
To
be
short
with
you
,
then
,
it
leads
me
to
this
.
If
the
truth
has
come
out
,
as
it
plainly
has
in
a
manner
that
there
’
s
no
standing
up
against
—
and
a
very
sublime
and
grand
thing
is
Truth
,
gentlemen
,
in
its
way
,
though
like
other
sublime
and
grand
things
,
such
as
thunder
-
storms
and
that
,
we
’
re
not
always
over
and
above
glad
to
see
it
—
I
had
better
turn
upon
this
man
than
let
this
man
turn
upon
me
.
It
’
s
clear
to
me
that
I
am
done
for
.
Therefore
,
if
anybody
is
to
split
,
I
had
better
be
the
person
and
have
the
advantage
of
it
.
Sarah
,
my
dear
,
comparatively
speaking
you
’
re
safe
.
I
relate
these
circumstances
for
my
own
profit
.
’
With
that
,
Mr
Brass
,
in
a
great
hurry
,
revealed
the
whole
story
;
bearing
as
heavily
as
possible
on
his
amiable
employer
,
and
making
himself
out
to
be
rather
a
saint
-
like
and
holy
character
,
though
subject
—
he
acknowledged
—
to
human
weaknesses
.
He
concluded
thus
:
‘
Now
,
gentlemen
,
I
am
not
a
man
who
does
things
by
halves
.
Being
in
for
a
penny
,
I
am
ready
,
as
the
saying
is
,
to
be
in
for
a
pound
.
You
must
do
with
me
what
you
please
,
and
take
me
where
you
please
.
If
you
wish
to
have
this
in
writing
,
we
’
ll
reduce
it
into
manuscript
immediately
.
You
will
be
tender
with
me
,
I
am
sure
.
I
am
quite
confident
you
will
be
tender
with
me
.
You
are
men
of
honour
,
and
have
feeling
hearts
.
I
yielded
from
necessity
to
Quilp
,
for
though
necessity
has
no
law
,
she
has
her
lawyers
.
I
yield
to
you
from
necessity
too
;
from
policy
besides
;
and
because
of
feelings
that
have
been
a
pretty
long
time
working
within
me
.
Punish
Quilp
,
gentlemen
.
Weigh
heavily
upon
him
.
Grind
him
down
.
Tread
him
under
foot
.
He
has
done
as
much
by
me
,
for
many
and
many
a
day
.
