In the garden on the bench under the large apple-tree, Mother and Auntie were sitting mending and conversing over the bringing-up of the children; for Auntie knew many a good advice, quite new and not worn out. Now they heard hasty running, and Edi and Ritz came rushing along. "May we in the Middle Lot to the Middle Lot people have arrived a wagon and a piano a terribly rich woman and a "
Yes, self-respecting, but, if I may say so, scarcely respecting your friends, scarcely respecting those who have cared deeply for you I refer to your family scarcely respecting your birth, bringing-up, and opportunities. It was distinctly out of place. The spectacle was not only shocking to me, it was painful. Not that what I think carries any weight with you.
Such is the admirable work which I am now going to call in evidence. Intimately, indeed, did Dickens know the Middle Class; he was bone of its bone and flesh of its flesh. Intimately he knew its bringing-up. With the hand of a master he has drawn for us a type of the teachers and trainers of its youth, a type of its places of education. Mr. Creakle and Salem House are immortal.
The smile with which she summed up her case was like a clear barrier raised against farther confidences: its brightness held him at such a distance that he had a sense of being almost out of hearing as he rejoined: "I am not sure that I have ever called you a successful example of that kind of bringing-up." Her colour rose a little at the implication, but she steeled herself with a light laugh.
Let the rest be left, confidently left, to your husband's devotion, and to Time that heals even wounds as deep as yours." She began to yield already. Oh, what a bringing-up she must have had! Oh, how differently I should have acted in her place! "Don't tempt me, Godfrey," she said; "I am wretched enough and reckless enough as it is. Don't tempt me to be more wretched and more wreckless still!"
"What of them?" "You and I, in fact," said Trefusis, "die of starvation, I suppose, unless we choose to work, or unless they give us a little out-door relief in consideration of our bad bringing-up." "Do you mean that they will plunder us?" said Sir Charles. "I mean that they will make us stop plundering them.
At one moment he was dismissing the idea of such delicateness, such super-refined super-sensitiveness being taken with a man of his imperfect bringing-up and humble origin.
"Why should she, if she don't want him?" said Sir Arthur briskly. "Rosita, I don't like to see this eagerness to get rid of your daughters. It reflects badly upon your bringing-up of them, ma'am." "Oh no, papa; how can you say so? It speaks well for mamma's happiness in her married life." "I see Charles hasn't cured you of your pertness yet, miss ma'am, I should say. Poor fellow!
He was ill-treated while a child by nurses and private tutors, without having really learned to know his parents, and by reason of a similar bringing-up he has retained from his youthful days opinions similar to my own, but has always been more satisfied with them than I ever was.
"He seemed pretty chummy." "That's his independent bringing-up. We're all like that in America." "Well, so long." "So long." On the bottom step, Lord Dreever halted. "I say. I've got it!" "Good for you. Got what?" "Why, I knew I'd seen that chap's face somewhere before, only I couldn't place him. I've got him now. He's the Johnny who came into the shelter last night. Chap you gave a quid to."
