Young beggars, male and female, as hasn't made a rise in their profession, takes up their quarters there sometimes; but it's generally the worn-out, starving, houseless creeturs as roll themselves in the dark corners o' them lonesome places--poor creeturs as ain't up to the twopenny rope.' 'And pray, Sam, what is the twopenny rope ?' inquired Mr.Pickwick.
'The twopenny rope, sir,' replied Mr.Weller, 'is just a cheap lodgin' house, where the beds is twopence a night.' 'What do they call a bed a rope for ?' said Mr.Pickwick.
'Bless your innocence, sir, that ain't it,' replied Sam.

'Ven the lady and gen'l'm'n as keeps the hot-el first begun business, they used to make the beds on the floor; but this wouldn't do at no price, 'cos instead o' taking a moderate twopenn'orth o' sleep, the lodgers used to lie there half the day.

So now they has two ropes, 'bout six foot apart, and three from the floor, which goes right down the room; and the beds are made of slips of coarse sacking, stretched across 'em.' 'Well,' said Mr.Pickwick.
'Well,' said Mr.Weller, 'the adwantage o' the plan's hobvious.

At six o'clock every mornin' they let's go the ropes at one end, and down falls the lodgers.

Consequence is, that being thoroughly waked, they get up wery quietly, and walk away! Beg your pardon, sir,' said Sam, suddenly breaking off in his loquacious discourse.
