The retired nabob holds you by the button, to hear his wearisome diatribes on Indian economics; the half-pay officer is too fluent on his worn-out recollections of the Peninsular War, and becomes savage if you broach a new theme, or move to adjourn the debate; the university pedant distracts you with his theories on philology and scansion with his amended translation of a hexameter in Persius, and his new reading of a line in Theocritus; the bagman is all for 'the shop; the policeman is redolent of the 'lock-up house 'and 'your wertchup; the tailor is profoundly knowing on the 'sweating system; 'the son of Crispin vows and protests there's 'nothing like leather. All these minus signs have a tendency to cancel each other: and thus the equation of life is worked out.
