"When she was leaving the city she lived in, she wept so that nothing was ever seen like it. She covered her eyes sometimes with her handkerchief, and sometimes with her hands; and looked out many times from the coach-window, to see her mother's palace once more." Everyone thought there was no great wonder in this.
"She was sitting," I answered, "in a black velvet coach." Mr. Pumblechook and Mrs. Joe stared at one another as they well Might and both repeated, "In a black velvet coach?" "Yes," said I. "And Miss Estella that's her niece, I think handed her in cake and wine at the coach-window, on a gold plate. And we all had cake and wine on gold plates.
Arrived at the wharf off which this great commander's ship was jammed in among some five hundred companions, whose tangled rigging looked like monstrous cobwebs half swept down, Captain Cuttle appeared at the coach-window, and invited Florence and Miss Nipper to accompany him on board; observing that Bunsby was to the last degree soft-hearted in respect of ladies, and that nothing would so much tend to bring his expansive intellect into a state of harmony as their presentation to the Cautious Clara.
On which Mrs. Hoggarty clenched her fist out of the coach-window, and promised that she would have him turned away.

The last he saw of his friend and employer was the captain's dark face looking out of the coach-window; the captain's hand waved in cordial farewell. "What a good fellow he is! what a noble fellow!" thought the wizen little clerk, as he trudged back towards the City. "But was there ever a baby so helpless on shore? was there ever an innocent infant that needed so much looking after?"
But M. de Duras, instead of giving assistance, looked from his coach-window, burst out laughing, and cried out: "What a luxurious horse thus to roll upon Roses!" and with this witticism passed gently on through the mud.
Tulrumble and son, as they bowed with grave dignity out of their coach-window to all the dirty faces that were laughing around them: but it is not even with this that we have to do, but with the sudden stopping of the procession at another blast of the trumpet, whereat, and whereupon, a profound silence ensued, and all eyes were turned towards Mudfog Hall, in the confident anticipation of some new wonder.
