"The little Cockney thinks the victimising would be in going to the deserts with only the boys and me," laughed Carey; "But I think a week later will be quite time enough to sweep the cobwebs out of her brain." "And you can do without her?" inquired Mrs. Brownlow. "You don't want her to help to keep the boys in order?" "Thank you, I can do that better without her," said Carey.
And so she was turned to be out of doors or brayed alive in the double-gilt pestle and mortar, by Jove! No, Mr. Warrington, there was no such thing: there was no victimising, or if there was, Mr. Arthur was the victim, not the girl. He is an honest fellow, he is, though he is conceited, and a puppy sometimes. He can feel like a man, and run away from temptation like a man.
He had a conscientious objection to victimising his personal friends.

"That may have been once, but things are different now," answered Strong. "They are not different now.
Each individual Korak, as soon as he found that he had been victimised, saw at once the necessity of getting even by victimising the next man, and not one of them would admit that there was anything bad about the pickle until they had all tasted it.
