Of course," he said, with a quick transition to the gentlest courtesy, "if you're conscientious about this thing we'll go on and not spare a cow.
"Trapesing about at night with Miss Laura's young man when you ought to have been abed and after the way she has always treated us all. Why, the very frock Winnie is putting on now is made out of one of hers. I should take shame to try and make mischief between her and her young man, and with him going to be married directly." "Don't talk such rot, aunt.
Cox argued shrilly that they were poor folks, and poor folks were better off not trapesing all over the city, and Emeline added that Ma would feel lost without her backyard and her neighbours, to say nothing of the privilege of bundling up in a flat black bonnet and brown shawl, hot weather or cold, and trotting off to St. Charles's Church at all hours of the day and night.
"You've no idea what it is to go trapesing up and down, hunting for a subject, while all the time the hand remains idle. Punch requires such a lot of thought, you see and then when the time comes for the hand to do its work, you can see what care and time are taken with the execution....
"I thought maybe he were a friend," said the stranger, with questionable veracity. The conversation thereupon proceeded with unrestrained vigor. "It baffles me, his going to Carlisle.

Which will be the 'dictment, think ye?"
She took them home in a very grand carriage, because the carrier's cart was gone, and, though she had stood by them so nobly with the police, she was so angry with them as soon as they were alone for "trapesing into Rochester by themselves," that none of them dared to mention the old man with the pony-cart from the village who was waiting for them in Rochester.
I wish to God I could get a cup of tea....

Ah, God be with me! an old creature hobbling along the roads on a stick.
She took you with her and left your sister with my Sally, when she was trapesing up to London and back with Mester Adrian, ay, and me with ye. And many the day that I wished myself safe at Pulwick! And I mind the day she took leave of you, I do that, well."
Do you think trapesing about alone all over the earth mixing with all sorts of people she doesn't know from Adam, and going goodness knows where and doing goodness knows what, and idling her life away, never putting a darn in her stockings even is irreproachable conduct on the part of a young woman of Zora's birth and appearance?
