'Ah h! sighed Mrs. Sparsit again, with another melancholy shake of her head. 'He is to be pitied, ma'am. The last party I have alluded to, is to be pitied, ma'am, said Bitzer. 'Yes, Bitzer, said Mrs. Sparsit.
'The circulation, sir, returned Bitzer, smiling at the oddity of the question, 'couldn't be carried on without one. No man, sir, acquainted with the facts established by Harvey relating to the circulation of the blood, can doubt that I have a heart. 'Is it accessible, cried Mr. Gradgrind, 'to any compassionate influence? 'It is accessible to Reason, sir, returned the excellent young man.
There he stood, panting and heaving, as if he had never stopped since the night, now long ago, when he had run them down before. 'I'm sorry to interfere with your plans, said Bitzer, shaking his head, 'but I can't allow myself to be done by horse-riders. I must have young Mr. Tom; he mustn't be got away by horse-riders; here he is in a smock frock, and I must have him!
'Then go straight up there, will you? said Bitzer. 'You're expected, and have only to tell the servant it's you. Stephen, whose way had been in the contrary direction, turned about, and betook himself as in duty bound, to the red brick castle of the giant Bounderby. 'WELL, Stephen, said Bounderby, in his windy manner, 'what's this I hear? What have these pests of the earth been doing to you?
'I beg your pardon for interrupting you, sir, returned Bitzer; 'but I am sure you know that the whole social system is a question of self-interest. What you must always appeal to, is a person's self-interest. It's your only hold. We are so constituted. I was brought up in that catechism when I was very young, sir, as you are aware. 'What sum of money, said Mr.
Sparsit, hiding in the window curtain, saw him languishing down the street on the shady side of the way, observed of all the town. 'What do you think of the gentleman, Bitzer? she asked the light porter, when he came to take away. 'Spends a deal of money on his dress, ma'am. 'It must be admitted, said Mrs. Sparsit, 'that it's very tasteful.

'He frightened me so, said the girl, 'with his cruel faces! 'Oh! cried Bitzer. 'Oh!
Bitzer knuckled his forehead again, in a sneaking manner, and seemed at once particularly impressed and depressed by the instance last given of Mr. Bounderby's moral abstinence. 'A hundred and fifty odd pound, resumed Mr. Bounderby. 'That sum of money, young Tom locked in his safe, not a very strong safe, but that's no matter now. Everything was left, all right.
'If you hadn't been so mighty particular about the sum, I should have begun to tell you before. Sparsit? 'I have already had the honour 'Very well. And this young man, Bitzer, you saw him too on the same occasion? Mr. Harthouse inclined his head in assent, and Bitzer knuckled his forehead. 'Very well. They live at the Bank. You know they live at the Bank, perhaps? Very well.
