OverviewThis was coming to the point, and I thought it a sensible way of expressing himself. To think, said Mr. Pumblechook, after snorting admiration at me for some moments, that I should have been the humble instrument of leading up to this, is a proud reward. I begged Mr. Pumblechook to remember that nothing was to be ever said or hinted, on that point. My dear young friend, said Mr. Pumblechook, if you will allow me to call you so- I murmured Certainly, and Mr. Pumblechook took me by both hands again, and communicated a movement to his waistcoat, which had an emotional appearance, though it was rather low down, My dear young friend, rely upon my doing my little all in your absence, by keeping the fact before the mind of Joseph.-Joseph! said Mr. Pumblechook, in the way of a compassionate adjuration. Joseph!! Joseph!!! Thereupon he shook his head and tapped it, expressing his sense of deficiency in Joseph. But my dear young friend, said Mr. Pumblechook, you must be hungry, you must be exhausted. Be seated. Here is a chicken had round from the Boar, here is a tongue had round from the Boar, here's one or two little things had round from the Boar, that I hope you may not despise. But do I, said Mr. Pumblechook, getting up again the moment after he had sat down, see afore me, him as I ever sported with in his times of happy infancy? And may I-may I-? This May I, meant might he shake hands? I consented, and he was fervent, and then sat down again. Full Product DetailsAuthor: Charles DickensPublisher: Sfk. Imprint: Sfk.
