Tom Gradgrind, junior, brought up under a continuous system of restraint, was a hypocrite, a thief, and, to Mr. James Harthouse, a whelp. Yet the visitor saw at once that the whelp was the only creature Mrs. Bounderby cared for, and it occurred to him, as time went on, that to win Mrs. Mr. Bounderby was proud to have Mr.
We have no more reason to believe in such a relation, than we have to believe that the same bones in the hand of a man, wing of a bat, and fin of a porpoise, are related to similar conditions of life. No one will suppose that the stripes on the whelp of a lion, or the spots on the young blackbird, are of any use to these animals, or are related to the conditions to which they are exposed.
Wull, Sir, 't was a poor swile, wi' blood runnun all under; an' I got my cuffs an' sleeves all red wi' it. So I smoothed away the snow wi' my cuffs, an' I sid 't was a poor thing wi' her whelp close by her, an' her tongue out, as ef she'd a-died fondlun an' lickun it; an' a great puddle o' blood, it looked tarrible heartless, when I was so nigh to death, an' was n' hungry.
"And I suppose you felt it your duty to inform my relatives of the fact? Very thoughtful of you, I'm sure." "Don't mention it," says I. "You you're an impertinent young whelp!" says he, his cheeks gettin' purple and puffy. "Ah, don't mind the frills," says I. "Get out the can. I'm fired, ain't I?" "No!" he shouts, bangin' his fist down on the desk. "At least, not until I get through with you.
Hark ye, never mention that I said that. You have been guilty of a great crime; and don't you ever be guilty of it again, on this boat. BUT lay for him ashore! Give him a good sound thrashing, do you hear? I'll pay the expenses. Now go and mind you, not a word of this to anybody. Clear out with you! you've been guilty of a great crime, you whelp!
"By heaven! it is Lincoln's voice!" "Yer cussed whelp! ye'd see the cap'n hung, would yer? a man that's good vally for the full of a pararer of green-gutted greasers; but I ain't a-gwine to let you look at his hangin'. If yer don't show me which of these hyur pigeon-holes is his'n, an' help me to get him outer it, I'll skin yer like a mink!"
The king and everybody else at table looked aghast; for perhaps the tumult made them think that a general rebellion had broken out. "Mercy on us!" muttered Sir Oliver; "that graceless nephew of mine is in some mischief or other. The naughty little whelp!" Getting up from table, he ran to see what was the matter, followed by many of the guests, and the king among them.
Yes," said he, as he foamed with the fury of a raging bull; "'I I I, you might have said, 'a nameless whelp, sprung from the dishonest clippings of a counter I, I say, am in quest of Miss Gourlay, who has eloped with an adventurer, an impostor with a brushmaker's clerk." "A tooth-brush manufacturer, Sir Thomas, and, you know, they are often made of ivory."
"Yes, sir." "What's a tongue for?" "To talk with, and " "That's enough! I thought you would say so. You are an ignorant whelp." "Isn't the tongue to talk with?" "No!" roared the passenger. "What is it for, then?" asked Donald, who did not know whether to be alarmed or amused at the manner of his violent companion. "It's to keep still with, you canting little monkey!
"Judas has brought great honour to our race," exclaimed Abishai, who attributed the emotion of his niece to a cause very different from the real one; "in his acts he is like a lion, and like a lion's whelp roaring for his prey. He has pursued the wicked, and sought them out; he has destroyed the ungodly, thrown down their altars, and turned away wrath from Israel."
