Some early chronicler thinks that the two got mixed, and that caudle was the result. The old English custom was to have this beverage served three days after the arrival of the little stranger. The caudle-cups, preserved in many an old family, are now eagerly sought after as curiosities; they have two handles, so they could be passed from one to another.
I've wanted a black satin gown these three years, and that five pounds would have entirely bought it. But it's no matter how I go, not at all. Everybody says I don't dress as becomes your wife and I don't; but what's that to you, Mr. Caudle? Nothing. Oh, no! you can have fine feelings for everybody but those belonging to you. I wish people knew you, as I do that's all.
"After all, Caudle, it is something to get into one's own bed again. I SHALL sleep to-night. What! "That's like your sneering; I know what you mean. Of course; I never can think of making myself comfortable, but you wound my feelings. If you cared for your own bed like any other man, you'd not have stayed out till this hour. Don't say that I drove you out of the house as soon as we came in it.
But I suppose you're all alike I dare say, every poor woman's troubled and put upon, though I should hope not so much as I am. Indeed, I should hope not! Going and staying out, and "What! "Will you? Not while I'm alive, Mr Caudle. I'm not going to bed with the door upon the latch for you or the best man breathing. "Will you? I'll have no Chubb here, I can tell you. What do you say?
"But I know what you mean, better than if you talked an hour. I only hope you'll get a better wife, that's all, Mr. Caudle. What? "Wouldn't you? I know you. In six months you'd fill up my place; yes, and dreadfully my dear children would suffer for it. "Caudle, if you roar in that way, the people will give us warning to- morrow.
O he is so overjoyed that it is inexpressible: Doll and Peg must out immediately to give notice of it to all the friends and acquaintance; thinking to himself that every body else will be as jocund and merry at it as he is. Do but see how busie he is! behold with what earnestness he runs up and down the house to give order that the great Caudle Skillet may be in a readiness!
And you didn't see how the Browns looked at the Smiths, and then at our dear girls, as much as to say, 'Poor creatures! what figures for the month of May! "The more shame for you you would, if you'd had the feelings of a parent but I'm sorry to say, Caudle, you haven't. I'm sure those Briggs's girls the little minxes! put me into such a pucker, I could have pulled their ears for 'em over the pew.
It's a chapel-of-ease for the devil to preach in don't tell me not to be eloquent: I don't know what you mean, Mr. Caudle, and I shall be just as eloquent as I like. But I never can open my lips and it isn't often, goodness knows! that I'm not insulted.
Of course, I can't expect you always to run home directly to me: and I don't, Caudle; and you know it. "A nice, neat, elegant little chaise. What? "There's a love! You are a good creature, Caudle; and 'twill make me so happy to think you don't depend upon an omnibus. A sweet little carriage, with our own arms beautifully painted on the panels. What?
And when you haven't a bed to lie upon, and are brought to sleep upon coal sacks and then I can tell you, Mr. Caudle, you may sleep by yourself then you'll know what's the matter. Now, I've seen your name, and don't deny it. Yes, the Eel-Pie Island Railway- -and among the Directors, Job Caudle, Esq., of the Turtle-Dovery, and no, I won't be quiet.
