Having seized the document, mistress sow ran off so briskly that not one of the clerks or officials could catch her, in spite of the rulers and ink-bottles they hurled after her. This extraordinary occurrence produced a terrible muddle, for there had not even been a copy taken of the plaint.
In this way our young anthropologist talked with himself: and as Saturday was the holiday of the week, the "Pall Mall Gazette" making its appearance upon that day, and the contributors to that journal having no further calls upon their brains or ink-bottles, Mr. Pendennis determined he would take advantage of his leisure, and pay a visit to Shepherd's Inn of course to see old Bows.
In one of the gardens I noticed that the little paths were paved with what looked like circular tiles, but which, on inspection, I found to be old-fashioned stone ink-bottles, buried bottom upwards; and I was meditating upon the quaint conceit of the forgotten scrivener who had thus adorned his habitation a law-writer perhaps, or an author, or perchance even a poet when I perceived the number that I was seeking inscribed on a shabby door in a high wall.
Dick likes a separate table for every book, and when he is tired of one he goes to another. There are no tables of any size in Trieste, so I had these made as soon as I came. They are so nice. We may upset the ink-bottles as often as we like without anybody being put out of the way.
Waste-baskets, ink-bottles, paper-weights, type-writers anything and everything that came to hand was filling the air. A policeman, under orders from his captain, clambered to the lofty seat of the coal waggon to arrest the driver.

But as there are in those same tubes of oozy paint horrific visions like Franz Stuck's "War," or portraits of plutocrats by Bonnat, and as there are in ink-bottles sad potencies of tailors' bills and scathing reviews of this very book, so it is possible under the name of music to write fugues and five-finger exercises, and yet more settings of "Hiawatha," or "Du bist wie eine Blume"
Like 'em to lie on, though sun, I like your jolly red-hot face Sunday! wonder if's got to do with sun p'raps twinkle, twinkle, little sun, how I wonder oh, what fun! won't I have sich wonderful tales tales tails stories are tails stick 'em on the end of puppy-dogs, and see how they'd look two or three two-legged puppies in the office what a difference now! no ink-bottles, no smashings, no quills, plenty of geese, though, and grouse and hares what was I thinking about?
He sat down in his large green morocco elbow-chair, drew himself close to his table, and glowered and gloomed at his writing apparatus, "a very handsome old box, richly carved, lined with crimson velvet, and containing ink-bottles, taper-stand, etc., in silver, the whole in such order that it might have come from the silversmith's window half an hour before."
I makes my pipes of old penny ink-bottles, ye see, deary this is one and I fits-in a mouthpiece, this way, and I takes my mixter out of this thimble with this little horn spoon; and so I fills, deary.
