It's very hard that I can't say a single word to you, but you must almost raise the place. "I don't know what you call shouting, then! I'm sure the people must hear you in the next house. No it won't do to call me soft names, now, Caudle: I'm not the fool that I was when I was first married I know better now.
"Ha! that shows what you think of your wife: I dare say if it was with any of your club friends any of your pot-house companions you'd have no objection to venison. I say if what do you mutter? "Very well. And now about the fish? What do you think of a nice turbot? No, Mr. Caudle, brill won't do it shall be turbot, or there sha'n't be any fish at all. Oh, what a mean man you are, Caudle!
Ha! the many nice little things she'd simmer up for you and I can't do it; the children, you know it, Caudle, take so much of my time. I can't do it, love; and I often reproach myself that I can't. Now, you shan't go to sleep, Caudle; at least not for five minutes. You must hear me. "I've been thinking, dearest ha! that nasty cough, love!
It's very well for you to say so; but if I could hear you, I daresay you're among the worst of 'em. "And now, I suppose, it will be the tavern every night? If you think I'm going to sit up for you, Mr. Caudle, you're very much mistaken. No: and I'm not going to get out of my warm bed to let you in, either. No: nor Susan shan't sit up for you. No: nor you shan't have a latchkey.
A great deal of pleasure I'm to have, if I'm told to hold my tongue. A nice way that of pleasing a woman. "Dear me! if the bed doesn't spin round and dance about! I've got all that filthy ship in my head! No: I sha'n't be well in the morning. But nothing ever ails anybody but yourself. You needn't groan in that way, Mr. Caudle, disturbing the people, perhaps, in the next room.
And then what nice currant wine we could make! And again, get 'em as fresh as you will, there's no radishes like your own radishes! They're ten times as sweet! What? "Yes; there you go! Anything that I fancy, you always bring up the expense. "No, Mr. Caudle, I should not be tired of it in a month. I tell you I was made for the country.
Then you'd be obliged to be at home, like any other decent man. Whereas you might, if you liked, enjoy yourself under your own apple-tree, and I'm sure I should never say anything about your tobacco out of doors. My only wish is to make you happy, Caudle, and you won't let me do it. "You don't speak, love? Shall I look about a house to-morrow?
During fevers, illness, no matter of what kind, or on whose side, childbirth even, never were they a single night apart, and even when the deceased Queen was eaten up with the scrofula, the King continued to sleep with her until a few nights before her death! About nine o'clock in the morning the curtains were drawn by the Asafeta, followed by a single valet carrying a basin full of caudle.
If you can buy the same book in France for four shillings that people here have the impudence to ask more than a guinea for well, if they DO steal it, that's their affair, not ours. As if there was anything in a book to steal! "And now, Caudle, when are you going home? What? "That's nothing to do with it. If we even lose a week's lodging and we mayn't do that we shall save it again in living.
Caudle; who, doubtless, trusted to the sweetness of her husband's disposition to make it agree with him. Philosophers have debated whether morning or night is most conducive to the strongest and clearest moral impressions. The Grecian sage confessed that his labours smelt of the lamp. In like manner did Mrs. Caudle's wisdom smell of the rushlight.
