'Oh don't twist about so, dear, or I can never hold you. 'My baby, my blessed, blessed, blessed, blessed baby! screamed Mrs Kenwigs, making every blessed louder than the last. 'My own darling, sweet, innocent Lillyvick Oh let me go to him. Let me go-o-o-o!
'Proud to know you, sir, said Mr Cutler; 'I've heerd of you very often. These were not mere words of ceremony; for, Mr Cutler, having kept house in Mr Lillyvick's parish, had heard of him very often indeed. His attention in calling had been quite extraordinary. 'George, you know, I think, Mr Lillyvick, said Kenwigs; 'lady from downstairs Mr Lillyvick. Mr Snewkes Mr Lillyvick.
At sight of their perjured relative, Mrs Kenwigs turned faint and pale, and Mr Kenwigs rose majestically. 'Kenwigs, said the collector, 'shake hands. 'Sir, said Mr Kenwigs, 'the time has been, when I was proud to shake hands with such a man as that man as now surweys me.
'You consider him a fine boy, do you, sir? returned Mr Kenwigs. 'It's the finest boy I ever saw in all my life, said the doctor. 'I never saw such a baby. It is a pleasant thing to reflect upon, and furnishes a complete answer to those who contend for the gradual degeneration of the human species, that every baby born into the world is a finer one than the last.

'It's naterally very gratifying to my feelings as a father, to see such a man as that, a kissing and taking notice of my children, pursued Mr Kenwigs. 'It's naterally very gratifying to my feelings as a man, to know that man. It will be naterally very gratifying to my feelings as a husband, to make that man acquainted with this ewent.

Mr Lillyvick was waxing so cross, that Mrs Kenwigs thought it expedient to motion to Nicholas not to say anything; and it was not until Miss Petowker had practised several blandishments, to soften the excellent old gentleman, that he deigned to break silence by asking, 'What's the water in French, sir?
