Then only less melodiously "No, sir-ee! Why, gentlemen, they weren't trying to kill the poor devil, he was trying to kill them, tell your Committee of Public Safety. And tell them times are changed. You can take Sam and Maxime, of course, if you can take the whole battery; we're not doing a retail business. By the by did you know?
It was but a short-lived one, though, for Mr Jonas soon began to whistle, whereupon Mr Pecksniff, taking his cue from his friend, began to hum a tune melodiously.

He bowed again and tramped towards the door with a tread that made the chandelier tinkle melodiously. The door closed behind him and his heavy footsteps died away along the corridor.
