'No doubt, no doubt, said Mr Meagles, with the caution belonging to the scales and scoop. 'But they will be a question of figures and accounts 'Just so, just so, said Mr Meagles, with arithmetical solidity belonging to the scales and scoop. And I shall be glad to enter into the subject, provided Mr Doyce responds, and you think well of it.
Many's the day, and many's the way in which he has backed me. 'Stuff and nonsense, said Mr Meagles. Arthur could not but glance at Daniel Doyce in the ensuing silence.
Two months had barely gone by in all, when Bleeding Heart Yard had become so familiar with short-commons again, that the treat was forgotten there; when nothing seemed new in the partnership but the paint of the inscription on the door-posts, DOYCE AND CLENNAM; when it appeared even to Clennam himself, that he had had the affairs of the firm in his mind for years.
You will continue in all such matters to act for both of us, as you have done hitherto, and to lighten my mind of a load it is much relieved from. 'Though, as I often tell you, returned Clennam, 'you unreasonably depreciate your business qualities. 'Perhaps so, said Doyce, smiling. 'And perhaps not.
His old sweetheart, being in fact so near at hand that she was then reclining against him in a flutter, a very substantial angle of forty-five degrees, here interposed to assure Mistress Affery with greater earnestness than directness of asseveration, that what she heard should go no further, but should be kept inviolate, 'if on no other account on Arthur's sensible of intruding in being too familiar Doyce and Clennam's.
'Painfully aware, Miss Dorrit, I am sure, said Flora, 'that to propose an adjournment to any place to one so far removed by fortune and so courted and caressed by the best society must ever appear intruding even if not a pie-shop far below your present sphere and a back-parlour though a civil man but if for the sake of Arthur cannot overcome it more improper now than ever late Doyce and Clennam one last remark I might wish to make one last explanation I might wish to offer perhaps your good nature might excuse under pretence of three kidney ones the humble place of conversation.
A composed and unobtrusive self-sustainment was noticeable in Daniel Doyce a calm knowledge that what was true must remain true, in spite of all the Barnacles in the family ocean, and would be just the truth, and neither more nor less when even that sea had run dry which had a kind of greatness in it, though not of the official quality.
It was not so difficult to believe, after the morning's experience, as Mr Meagles supposed. 'Don't stand there, Doyce, turning your spectacle-case over and over, cried Mr Meagles, 'but tell Mr Clennam what you confessed to me. 'I undoubtedly was made to feel, said the inventor, 'as if I had committed an offence.
'Except that when Pancks told us of your having embarked in this business and with difficulty persuaded us that it was really you I said to Mr F.'s Aunt then we would come and ask you if it would be agreeable to all parties that she should be engaged at our house when required for I know she often goes to your mama's and I know that your mama has a very touchy temper Arthur Doyce and Clennam or I never might have married Mr F. and might have been at this hour but I am running into nonsense.
'No, no, don't say that. 'What nonsense not to say it Arthur Doyce and Clennam easier and less trying to me than Mr Clennam when I know it and you know it too and can't deny it. 'But I do deny it, Flora. I should soon have made you a friendly visit. 'Ah! said Flora, tossing her head. 'I dare say! and she gave him another of the old looks.
