On
his
way
home
,
on
the
evening
he
set
aside
for
this
momentous
purpose
,
he
took
the
precaution
of
stepping
into
a
chemist
's
shop
and
buying
a
bottle
of
the
very
strongest
smelling-salts
.
'
By
George
!
'
said
Mr.
Bounderby
,
'
if
she
takes
it
in
the
fainting
way
,
I
'll
have
the
skin
off
her
nose
,
at
all
events
!
'
But
,
in
spite
of
being
thus
forearmed
,
he
entered
his
own
house
with
anything
but
a
courageous
air
;
and
appeared
before
the
object
of
his
misgivings
,
like
a
dog
who
was
conscious
of
coming
direct
from
the
pantry
.
892
'
Good
evening
,
Mr.
Bounderby
!
'
893
'
Good
evening
,
ma'am
,
good
evening
.
'
He
drew
up
his
chair
,
and
Mrs.
Sparsit
drew
back
hers
,
as
who
should
say
,
'
Your
fireside
,
sir
.
I
freely
admit
it
.
It
is
for
you
to
occupy
it
all
,
if
you
think
proper
.

'
Do
n't
go
to
the
North
Pole
,
ma'am
!
'
said
Mr.
Bounderby
.
895
'
Thank
you
,
sir
,
'
said
Mrs.
896
Sparsit
,
and
returned
,
though
short
of
her
former
position
.
897
Mr.
Bounderby
sat
looking
at
her
,
as
,
with
the
points
of
a
stiff
,
sharp
pair
of
scissors
,
she
picked
out
holes
for
some
inscrutable
ornamental
purpose
,
in
a
piece
of
cambric
.
An
operation
which
,
taken
in
connexion
with
the
bushy
eyebrows
and
the
Roman
nose
,
suggested
with
some
liveliness
the
idea
of
a
hawk
engaged
upon
the
eyes
of
a
tough
little
bird
.
She
was
so
steadfastly
occupied
,
that
many
minutes
elapsed
before
she
looked
up
from
her
work
;
when
she
did
so
Mr.
Bounderby
bespoke
her
attention
with
a
hitch
of
his
head
.

'
Mrs.
Sparsit
,
ma'am
,
'
said
Mr.
Bounderby
,
putting
his
hands
in
his
pockets
,
and
assuring
himself
with
his
right
hand
that
the
cork
of
the
little
bottle
was
ready
for
use
,
'
I
have
no
occasion
to
say
to
you
,
that
you
are
not
only
a
lady
born
and
bred
,
but
a
devilish
sensible
woman
.
'
899
'
Sir
,
'
returned
the
lady
,
'
this
is
indeed
not
the
first
time
that
you
have
honoured
me
with
similar
expressions
of
your
good
opinion
.
'

'
Mrs.
Sparsit
,
ma'am
,
'
said
Mr.
Bounderby
,
'
I
am
going
to
astonish
you
.
