An' 'e wants me to go out wiv 'im next Benk 'Oliday out to 'Ampstead 'Eath. 'E never got as far as arstin' me that before. I know it was that 'at wot done it." "Not it, Eliza," Cecilia laughed. "It was just your hair under the hat. I told you how pretty it would be, if you would only brush it more." "Well, I never 'ad no brush till you give me your old one," said Eliza practically.
The conductors of one or two passing omnibuses hailed him; and he gathered from their 'Benk! Benk! that at least he was in the right direction. But he was not going to spend money causelessly; so he trudged on. At length, when he got to the wide square fronting the Royal Exchange, the solitariness of the place struck him with a strange chill.
I want the hundred thousand pounds paid into benks thirty thousand into the London and County Benk Branch at Bun Hill in Kent directly I 'and over the plans; twenty thousand into the Benk of England; 'arf the rest into a good French bank, the other 'arf the German National Bank, see? I want it put there, right away. I don't want it put in the name of Butteridge.
And Anderson quoted, rather imperfectly, I thought: Oh, but life went gayly, gayly In the house of Idah Dally; There were always throats to sing Down the river bank with spring. Mr. Sklarz beamed. "Yes, yes," he said, "down the river benk mit spring." And he stood up and bowed and summoned the waiter. "See vat all the gentlemen vant," he ordered, "and give them vat they vant mit my compliments."
After thet, follow your nowse! See?" "Thank you!" said John. The throng of traffic seemed to be greater here than it had been at Elephant and Castle, and John, confused by it, stood looking about him. "Thet's the Benk of England, thet!" the conductor hurriedly continued, pointing across the street to the low, squat, dirty-looking building which occupied the whole of one side of the street.
Direction mattering little and companionship everything, they wandered on, talking of immaterial things of the rough pavements, of the shop windows, of the gray medieval buildings. They came to a full stop in front of the Votivkirche, and discussed gravely the twin Gothic spires and the Benk sculptures on the facade.
He laughed, or, rather, chuckled. "I must be going. Excuse me," he exclaimed with a quick little bow. "I have other places to call on. Good-by. Remember me Sam Sklarz. Be good and don't forget Sam Sklarz when there are throats to zing down the river benk mit spring." We watched him walk out. His shoulders seemed to dance, his short legs moved with a sprightly lift.
