Wemmick was up early in the morning, and I am afraid I heard him cleaning my boots. After that, he fell
to gardening, and I saw him from my gothic window pretending to employ the Aged, and nodding at him
in a most devoted manner. Our breakfast was as good as the supper, and at half-past eight precisely
we started for Little Britain. By degrees, Wemmick got dryer and harder as we went along, and his mouth
tightened into a post-office again. At last, when we got to his place of business and he pulled out his
key from his coat-collar, he looked as unconscious of his Walworth property as if the Castle and the
drawbridge and the arbour and the lake and the fountain and the Aged, had all been blown into space
together by the last discharge of the Stinger.
