^You said on that occasion察院 I recommenced察 that you might
possibly have the means of advancing my interests察and promoting
my fortunes察 by making discoveries of which I should be the
subject。 I presume that you founded that belief upon your general
knowledge of my being an orphan girl察indebted for everything to
the benevolence of Mr Jarndyce。 Now察the beginning and the end
of what I have come to beg of you is察Mr Guppy察that you will have
the kindness to relinquish all idea of so serving me。 I have thought
of this sometimes察 and I have thought of it most lately!since I
have been ill。 At length I have decided察in case you should at any
time recall that purpose察and act upon it any way察to come to you察
and assure you that you are altogether mistaken。 You could make
no discovery in reference to me that would do me the least service察
or give me the least pleasure。 I am acquainted with my personal

history察and I have it in my power to assure you that you never can
advance my welfare by such means。 You may察 perhaps察 have
abandoned this project a long time。 If so察 excuse my giving you
unnecessary trouble。 If not察I entreat you察on the assurance I have
given you察 henceforth to lay it aside。 I beg you do this察 for my
peace。 ̄
^I am bound to confess察院 said Mr Guppy察 that you express
yourself察miss察with that good sense and right feeling for which I
gave you credit。 Nothing can be more satisfactory than such right
feeling察and if I mistook any intentions on your part just now察I am
prepared to tender a full apology。 I should wish to be understood察
miss察 as hereby offering that apology!limiting it察 as your own
good sense and right feeling will point out the necessity of察to the
present proceedings。 ̄
I must say for Mr Guppy that the shuffling manner he had had
upon him improved very much。 He seemed truly glad to be able to
do something I asked察and he looked ashamed。
^If you will allow me to finish what I have to say at once察so that
I may have no occasion to resume察院I went on察seeing him about to
speak察 you will do me a kindness察sir。 I come to you as privately as
possible察because you announced this impression of yours to me in
a confidence which I have really wished to respect!and which I
always have respected察 as you remember。 I have mentioned my
illness。 There really is no reason why I should hesitate to say that I
know very well that any little delicacy I might have had in making
a request to you察is quite removed。 Therefore I make the entreaty I
have now preferred察 and I hope you will have sufficient
consideration for me察to accede to it。 ̄
I must do Mr Guppy the further justice of saying that he had
Charles Dickens ElecBook Classics

looked more and more ashamed察 and that he looked most
ashamed察and very earnest察when he now replied with a burning
face此
^Upon my word and honour察upon my life察upon my soul察Miss
Summerson察as I am a living man察I¨ll act according to your wish
I¨ll never go another step in opposition to it。 I¨ll take my oath to it察
if it will be any satisfaction to you。 In what I promise at this
present time touching the matters now in question察院continued Mr
Guppy察rapidly察as if he were repeating a familiar form of words察 I
speak the truth察the whole truth察and nothing but the truth察so! ̄
^I am quite satisfied察院said I察rising at this point察 and I thank
you very much。 Caddy察my dear察I am ready 院
Mr Guppy¨s mother returned with Caddy now making met me
the recipient of her silent laughter and her nudges察and we took
our leave。 Mr Guppy saw us to the door with the air of one who
was either imperfectly awake or walking in his sleep察and we left
him there察staring。
But in a minute he came after us down the street without any
hat察and with his long hair all blown about察and stopped us察saying
fervently此
^Miss Summerson察upon my honour and soul察you may depend
upon me 院
^I do察院said I察 quite confidently。 ̄
^I beg your pardon察miss察院said Mr Guppy察 going with one leg
and staying with the other察 but this lady being present!your own
witness!it might be a satisfaction to your mind which I should
wish to set at rest if you was to repeat those admissions。 ̄
^Well察Caddy察院said I察turning to her察 perhaps you will not be
surprised when I tell you察my dear察that there never has been any

engagement! ̄
^No proposal or promise of marriage whatsoever察院 suggested
Mr Guppy。
^No proposal or promise of marriage whatsoever察院 said I察
^between this gentleman! ̄
^William Guppy of Penton Place察Pentonville察in the county of
Middlesex察院he murmured。
^Between this gentleman察Mr William Guppy察of Penton Place察
Pentonville察in the county of Middlesex察and myself。 ̄
^Thank you察 miss察院 said Mr Guppy。 ^Very full察er!excuse
me!lady¨s name察Christian and surname both拭院
I gave them。
^Married woman察I believe拭院said Mr Guppy。 ^Married woman。
Thank you。 Formerly Caroline Jellyby察 spinster察 then of Thavies
Inn察 within the city of London察 but extra´parochial察 now of
Newman Street察Oxford Street。 Much obliged。 ̄
He ran home and came running back again。
^Touching that matter察 you know察 I really and truly am very
sorry that my arrangements in life察combined with circumstances
over which I have no control察 should prevent a renewal of what
was wholly terminated some time back察院 said Mr Guppy to me察
forlornly and despondently察 but it couldn¨t be。 Now could it察you
know拭I only put it to you。 ̄
I replied it certainly could not。 The subject did not admit of a
doubt。 He thanked me察and ran to his mother¨s again!and back
again。
^It¨s very honourable of you察miss察I am sure察院said Mr Guppy。
^If an altar could be erected in the bowers of friendship!but察
upon my soul察 you may rely upon me in every respect察 save and

except the tender passion only 院
The struggle in Mr Guppy¨s breast察 and the numerous
oscillations it occasioned him between his mother¨s door and us察
were sufficiently conspicuous in the windy street particularly as
his hair wanted cutting察 to make us hurry away。 I did so with a
lightened heart察but when we last looked back察Mr Guppy was still
oscillating in the same troubled state of mind。
