What you ought to do, Bingle, is to turn those kids over to a Home of some sort and settle down to a normal way of living. Winter is coming on.
I have a right to advise you...." That is how these prematurely exhausted people talk. Altogether build your life according to the conventional pattern.

Conscious of physical exhaustion and boredom, he does not understand what is the matter with him, and what has happened.
Fur the first time in his life he was possessed with a good longing namely, for his son; a fulcrum was at length established which might support leverage for his uplifting. He grew visibly greyer, stooped more, and became very irritable. Twenty times a day he would be on the point of sending for Richard, but twenty times a day his pride checked him.

They may submit better than the young, but they do not so easily revive. The little old ladies looked greyer and more nervous, and the little old house looked greyer and gloomier than of old.
