It must come, some time or another, and why not in the winter time when you don't want to go out a-walking so much; eh, Fagin? 'Ah, to be sure, my dear, replied the Jew.
These were, the great advantages of the trade, the proficiency of the Dodger, the amiability of Charley Bates, and the liberality of the Jew himself. At length these subjects displayed signs of being thoroughly exhausted; and Mr. Chitling did the same: for the house of correction becomes fatiguing after a week or two. Miss Betsy accordingly withdrew; and left the party to their repose.
Chitling, bestowing numerous admiring glances on his legs and boots till they were out of sight, assured the company that he considered his acquaintance cheap at fifteen sixpences an interview, and that he didn't value his losses the snap of his little finger.

'Wot's come of young Bates? demanded Kags.
But where can he have come from first, and how comes he here alone without the other! What do you think? said Chitling. Toby shook his head. 'If he had, said Kags, 'the dog 'ud want to lead us away to where he did it. No. I think he's got out of the country, and left the dog behind.
