'If I hadn't known it of my Fledgeby, should I have proposed our little compact of advantage, to my Fledgeby? 'Ah! remarked Fascination, shaking his head slyly. 'But I am not to be got at in that way. I am not vain. That sort of vanity don't pay, Lammle. No, no, no. Compliments only make me hold my tongue the more.
The happy pair being left together, Mrs Lammle said to her husband: 'If I understand this girl, sir, your dangerous fascinations have produced some effect upon her. I mention the conquest in good time because I apprehend your scheme to be more important to you than your vanity. There was a mirror on the wall before them, and her eyes just caught him smirking in it.
You must be a staggering next, must you? he takes his departure out of the ring in which he has had that little turn-up with Death. Mr and Mrs Wilfer had seen a full quarter of a hundred more anniversaries of their wedding day than Mr and Mrs Lammle had seen of theirs, but they still celebrated the occasion in the bosom of their family.
This figure of speech seemed rather mysterious to Fascination Fledgeby, who said, 'There's a what in his eh? 'Alfred, dear Mr Fledgeby, discussed with me this very morning before he went out, some prospects he has, which might entirely change the aspect of his present troubles. 'Really? said Fledgeby. 'O yes! Here Mrs Lammle brought her handkerchief into play.
A certain remembrance connected with that feature operating as a timely warning, he took it thoughtfully between his thumb and forefinger, and pondered; Lammle meanwhile eyeing him with furtive eyes. 'Well! said Fledgeby. 'This won't improve with talking about. If we ever find out who did it, we'll mark that person.
Mr Lammle was proud to be so soon distinguished by this special commendation to Miss Podsnap's favour. But if Mr Lammle were prone to be jealous of his dear Sophronia's friendships, he would be jealous of her feeling towards Miss Podsnap. 'Say Georgiana, darling, interposed his wife.
'Mention it! replied Mrs Lammle, as if she were full of awakened feeling at the suggestion of such an impossibility. 'Men-tion it! 'I don't mind telling you, Mrs Lammle Bella began again. 'My love, say Sophronia, or I must not say Bella. With a little short, petulant 'Oh! Bella complied. 'Oh!
'My love, returned Mrs Lammle, 'your prudence amazes me where DID you study life so well! you are right. In such a case as yours, the object is a fitting establishment. You could not descend to an inadequate one from Mr Boffin's house, and even if your beauty alone could not command it, it is to be assumed that Mr and Mrs Boffin will 'Oh! they have already, Bella interposed. 'No!
'I am but the representative of another, sir, returned the Jew in a low voice. 'I do as I am bidden by my principal. It is not my capital that is invested in the business. It is not my profit that arises therefrom. 'Ha ha! laughed Fledgeby. 'Lammle? 'Ha ha! laughed Lammle. 'Yes. Of course. We know. 'Devilish good, ain't it, Lammle? said Fledgeby, unspeakably amused by his hidden joke.
And it was not a mere retort for the sound's sake, but was a cheerful cogent consequence of the refusal; for if Lammle had applied himself again to the loaf, it would have been so heavily visited, in Fledgeby's opinion, as to demand abstinence from bread, on his part, for the remainder of that meal at least, if not for the whole of the next.
