'Mas'r Davy, Ham whispered, drawing me aside, while Mr. Peggotty was stowing his bag among the luggage, 'his life is quite broke up. He doen't know wheer he's going; he doen't know what's afore him; he's bound upon a voyage that'll last, on and off, all the rest of his days, take my wured for 't, unless he finds what he's a seeking of. I am sure you'll be a friend to him, Mas'r Davy?
Peggotty meant to say, bird's-nesting 'this morning, 'tis along of me as you're a-going to quit us? 'You have something to say, my good friend, returned my aunt, 'and will do better without me. 'By your leave, ma'am, returned Mr. Peggotty, 'I should take it kind, pervising you doen't mind my clicketten, if you'd bide heer. 'Would you? said my aunt, with short good-nature.
'What end? I asked, possessed by my former fear. 'I doen't know,'he said, thoughtfully; 'I was calling to mind that the beginning of it all did take place here and then the end come. But it's gone!
I saw it move a little more, and a hand softly interpose to keep it open. 'I found out an English gen'leman as was in authority, said Mr. Peggotty, 'and told him I was a-going to seek my niece. He got me them papers as I wanted fur to carry me through I doen't rightly know how they're called and he would have give me money, but that I was thankful to have no need on.
'I sighted the old boat arter dark, and the light a-shining in the winder. When I come nigh and looked in through the glass, I see the faithful creetur Missis Gummidge sittin' by the fire, as we had fixed upon, alone. I called out, "Doen't be afeerd! It's Dan'l!" and I went in.
If the likeness of that face don't turn to burning fire, at the thought of offering money to me for my child's blight and ruin, it's as bad. I doen't know, being a lady's, but what it's worse. She changed now, in a moment.
Ham glanced at me, and suddenly I felt a shock that struck me back. 'There's a man suspected, said Mr. Peggotty. 'Who is it? 'Mas'r Davy! implored Ham. 'Go out a bit, and let me tell him what I must. You doen't ought to hear it, sir. I felt the shock again. I sank down in a chair, and tried to utter some reply; but my tongue was fettered, and my sight was weak.
