You know the kind of thing I mean.

You might write notes or do accounts and shopping for some lazy woman.

You are a practical, honest creature, and you have good manners.

I have often thought that you had just the kind of commonplace gifts that a host of commonplace people want to find at their service.

An old servant of mine who lives in Mortimer Street would probably give you cheap, decent lodgings, and behave well to you for my sake.
