I
sat
looking
at
Peggotty
for
some
time
,
in
a
reverie
on
this
supposititious
case
:
whether
,
if
she
were
employed
to
lose
me
like
the
boy
in
the
fairy
tale
,
I
should
be
able
to
track
my
way
home
again
by
the
buttons
she
would
shed
.
262
The
carrier
s
horse
was
the
laziest
horse
in
the
world
,
I
should
hope
,
and
shuffled
along
,
with
his
head
down
,
as
if
he
liked
to
keep
people
waiting
to
whom
the
packages
were
directed
.
I
fancied
,
indeed
,
that
he
sometimes
chuckled
audibly
over
this
reflection
,
but
the
carrier
said
he
was
only
troubled
with
a
cough
.
The
carrier
had
a
way
of
keeping
his
head
down
,
like
his
horse
,
and
of
drooping
sleepily
forward
as
he
drove
,
with
one
of
his
arms
on
each
of
his
knees
.
I
say
drove
,
but
it
struck
me
that
the
cart
would
have
gone
to
Yarmouth
quite
as
well
without
him
,
for
the
horse
did
all
that
;
and
as
to
conversation
,
he
had
no
idea
of
it
but
whistling
.
263
Peggotty
had
a
basket
of
refreshments
on
her
knee
,
which
would
have
lasted
us
out
handsomely
,
if
we
had
been
going
to
London
by
the
same
conveyance
.
We
ate
a
good
deal
,
and
slept
a
good
deal
.
Peggotty
always
went
to
sleep
with
her
chin
upon
the
handle
of
the
basket
,
her
hold
of
which
never
relaxed
;
and
I
could
not
have
believed
unless
I
had
heard
her
do
it
,
that
one
defenceless
woman
could
have
snored
so
much
.

We
made
so
many
deviations
up
and
down
lanes
,
and
were
such
a
long
time
delivering
a
bedstead
at
a
public
-
house
,
and
calling
at
other
places
,
that
I
was
quite
tired
,
and
very
glad
,
when
we
saw
Yarmouth
.
It
looked
rather
spongy
and
soppy
,
I
thought
,
as
I
carried
my
eye
over
the
great
dull
waste
that
lay
across
the
river
;
and
I
could
not
help
wondering
,
if
the
world
were
really
as
round
as
my
geography
book
said
,
how
any
part
of
it
came
to
be
so
flat
.
265
But
I
reflected
that
Yarmouth
might
be
situated
at
one
of
the
poles
;
which
would
account
for
it
.
266
As
we
drew
a
little
nearer
,
and
saw
the
whole
adjacent
prospect
lying
a
straight
low
line
under
the
sky
,
I
hinted
to
Peggotty
that
a
mound
or
so
might
have
improved
it
;
and
also
that
if
the
land
had
been
a
little
more
separated
from
the
sea
,
and
the
town
and
the
tide
had
not
been
quite
so
much
mixed
up
,
like
toast
and
water
,
it
would
have
been
nicer
.
But
Peggotty
said
,
with
greater
emphasis
than
usual
,
that
we
must
take
things
as
we
found
them
,
and
that
,
for
her
part
,
she
was
proud
to
call
herself
a
Yarmouth
Bloater
.
267
When
we
got
into
the
street
(
which
was
strange
enough
to
me
)
and
smelt
the
fish
,
and
pitch
,
and
oakum
,
and
tar
,
and
saw
the
sailors
walking
about
,
and
the
carts
jingling
up
and
down
over
the
stones
,
I
felt
that
I
had
done
so
busy
a
place
an
injustice
;
and
said
as
much
to
Peggotty
,
who
heard
my
expressions
of
delight
with
great
complacency
,
and
told
me
it
was
well
known
(
I
suppose
to
those
who
had
the
good
fortune
to
be
born
Bloaters
)
that
Yarmouth
was
,
upon
the
whole
,
the
finest
place
in
the
universe
.

Here
s
my
Am
!
screamed
Peggotty
,
growed
out
of
knowledge
!
269
He
was
waiting
for
us
,
in
fact
,
at
the
public
-
house
;
and
asked
me
how
I
found
myself
,
like
an
old
acquaintance
.
I
did
not
feel
,
at
first
,
that
I
knew
him
as
well
as
he
knew
me
,
because
he
had
never
come
to
our
house
since
the
night
I
was
born
,
and
naturally
he
had
the
advantage
of
me
.
270
But
our
intimacy
was
much
advanced
by
his
taking
me
on
his
back
to
carry
me
home
.
He
was
,
now
,
a
huge
,
strong
fellow
of
six
feet
high
,
broad
in
proportion
,
and
round
-
shouldered
;
but
with
a
simpering
boy
s
face
and
curly
light
hair
that
gave
him
quite
a
sheepish
look
.
He
was
dressed
in
a
canvas
jacket
,
and
a
pair
of
such
very
stiff
trousers
that
they
would
have
stood
quite
as
well
alone
,
without
any
legs
in
them
.
And
you
couldn
t
so
properly
have
said
he
wore
a
hat
,
as
that
he
was
covered
in
a
-
top
,
like
an
old
building
,
with
something
pitchy
.
