I
could
not
help
laughing
again
,
at
his
balancing
all
callings
and
professions
so
equally
;
and
I
told
him
so
.
‘
What
is
a
proctor
,
Steerforth
?
’
said
I
.
‘
Why
,
he
is
a
sort
of
monkish
attorney
,
’
replied
Steerforth
.
‘
He
is
,
to
some
faded
courts
held
in
Doctors
’
Commons
,
—
a
lazy
old
nook
near
St
.
Paul
’
s
Churchyard
—
what
solicitors
are
to
the
courts
of
law
and
equity
.
He
is
a
functionary
whose
existence
,
in
the
natural
course
of
things
,
would
have
terminated
about
two
hundred
years
ago
.
I
can
tell
you
best
what
he
is
,
by
telling
you
what
Doctors
’
Commons
is
.
It
’
s
a
little
out
-
of
-
the
-
way
place
,
where
they
administer
what
is
called
ecclesiastical
law
,
and
play
all
kinds
of
tricks
with
obsolete
old
monsters
of
acts
of
Parliament
,
which
three
-
fourths
of
the
world
know
nothing
about
,
and
the
other
fourth
supposes
to
have
been
dug
up
,
in
a
fossil
state
,
in
the
days
of
the
Edwards
.
It
’
s
a
place
that
has
an
ancient
monopoly
in
suits
about
people
’
s
wills
and
people
’
s
marriages
,
and
disputes
among
ships
and
boats
.
’
‘
Nonsense
,
Steerforth
!
’
I
exclaimed
.
‘
You
don
’
t
mean
to
say
that
there
is
any
affinity
between
nautical
matters
and
ecclesiastical
matters
?
’
‘
I
don
’
t
,
indeed
,
my
dear
boy
,
’
he
returned
;
‘
but
I
mean
to
say
that
they
are
managed
and
decided
by
the
same
set
of
people
,
down
in
that
same
Doctors
’
Commons
.
You
shall
go
there
one
day
,
and
find
them
blundering
through
half
the
nautical
terms
in
Young
’
s
Dictionary
,
apropos
of
the
“
Nancy
”
having
run
down
the
“
Sarah
Jane
”
,
or
Mr
.
Peggotty
and
the
Yarmouth
boatmen
having
put
off
in
a
gale
of
wind
with
an
anchor
and
cable
to
the
“
Nelson
”
Indiaman
in
distress
;
and
you
shall
go
there
another
day
,
and
find
them
deep
in
the
evidence
,
pro
and
con
,
respecting
a
clergyman
who
has
misbehaved
himself
;
and
you
shall
find
the
judge
in
the
nautical
case
,
the
advocate
in
the
clergyman
’
s
case
,
or
contrariwise
.
They
are
like
actors
:
now
a
man
’
s
a
judge
,
and
now
he
is
not
a
judge
;
now
he
’
s
one
thing
,
now
he
’
s
another
;
now
he
’
s
something
else
,
change
and
change
about
;
but
it
’
s
always
a
very
pleasant
,
profitable
little
affair
of
private
theatricals
,
presented
to
an
uncommonly
select
audience
.
’
‘
But
advocates
and
proctors
are
not
one
and
the
same
?
’
said
I
,
a
little
puzzled
.
‘
Are
they
?
’
‘
No
,
’
returned
Steerforth
,
‘
the
advocates
are
civilians
—
men
who
have
taken
a
doctor
’
s
degree
at
college
—
which
is
the
first
reason
of
my
knowing
anything
about
it
.
The
proctors
employ
the
advocates
.
Both
get
very
comfortable
fees
,
and
altogether
they
make
a
mighty
snug
little
party
.
On
the
whole
,
I
would
recommend
you
to
take
to
Doctors
’
Commons
kindly
,
David
.
They
plume
them
-
selves
on
their
gentility
there
,
I
can
tell
you
,
if
that
’
s
any
satisfaction
.
’
I
made
allowance
for
Steerforth
’
s
light
way
of
treating
the
subject
,
and
,
considering
it
with
reference
to
the
staid
air
of
gravity
and
antiquity
which
I
associated
with
that
‘
lazy
old
nook
near
St
.
Paul
’
s
Churchyard
’
,
did
not
feel
indisposed
towards
my
aunt
’
s
suggestion
;
which
she
left
to
my
free
decision
,
making
no
scruple
of
telling
me
that
it
had
occurred
to
her
,
on
her
lately
visiting
her
own
proctor
in
Doctors
’
Commons
for
the
purpose
of
settling
her
will
in
my
favour
.
