Well, then; my idea is, that you should give up your stall, and that I should put you into the Bower here, to keep it for us.

It's a pleasant spot; and a man with coals and candles and a pound a week might be in clover here.' 'Hem! Would that man, sir--we will say that man, for the purposes of argueyment;' Mr Wegg made a smiling demonstration of great perspicuity here; 'would that man, sir, be expected to throw any other capacity in, or would any other capacity be considered extra?
Now let us (for the purposes of argueyment) suppose that man to be engaged as a reader: say (for the purposes of argueyment) in the evening.

Would that man's pay as a reader in the evening, be added to the other amount, which, adopting your language, we will call clover; or would it merge into that amount, or clover ?' 'Well,' said Mr Boffin, 'I suppose it would be added.' 'I suppose it would, sir.

You are right, sir.

Exactly my own views, Mr Boffin.' Here Wegg rose, and balancing himself on his wooden leg, fluttered over his prey with extended hand.
