Why
do
you
hunt
and
persecute
me
,
God
help
me
!
said
the
old
man
turning
to
his
grandson
.
Why
do
you
bring
your
prolifigate
companions
here
?
How
often
am
I
to
tell
you
that
my
life
is
one
of
care
and
self
-
denial
,
and
that
I
am
poor
?
162
How
often
am
I
to
tell
you
,
returned
the
other
,
looking
coldly
at
him
,
that
I
know
better
?
163
You
have
chosen
your
own
path
,
said
the
old
man
.
Follow
it
.
Leave
Nell
and
me
to
toil
and
work
.

Nell
will
be
a
woman
soon
,
returned
the
other
,
and
,
bred
in
your
faith
,
she
ll
forget
her
brother
unless
he
shows
himself
sometimes
.
165
Take
care
,
said
the
old
man
with
sparkling
eyes
,
that
she
does
not
forget
you
when
you
would
have
her
memory
keenest
.
Take
care
that
the
day
don
t
come
when
you
walk
barefoot
in
the
streets
,
and
she
rides
by
in
a
gay
carriage
of
her
own
.
166
You
mean
when
she
has
your
money
?
retorted
the
other
167
How
like
a
poor
man
he
talks
!

And
yet
,
said
the
old
man
dropping
his
voice
and
speaking
like
one
who
thinks
aloud
,
how
poor
we
are
,
and
what
a
life
it
is
!
The
cause
is
a
young
child
s
guiltless
of
all
harm
or
wrong
,
but
nothing
goes
well
with
it
!
Hope
and
patience
,
hope
and
patience
!
169
These
words
were
uttered
in
too
low
a
tone
to
reach
the
ears
of
the
young
men
.
Mr
Swiveller
appeared
to
think
that
they
implied
some
mental
struggle
consequent
upon
the
powerful
effect
of
his
address
,
for
he
poked
his
friend
with
his
cane
and
whispered
his
conviction
that
he
had
administered
a
clincher
,
and
that
he
expected
a
commission
on
the
profits
.
Discovering
his
mistake
after
a
while
,
he
appeared
to
grow
rather
sleepy
and
discontented
,
and
had
more
than
once
suggested
the
propriety
of
an
immediate
departure
,
when
the
door
opened
,
and
the
child
herself
appeared
.
170
The
child
was
closely
followed
by
an
elderly
man
of
remarkably
hard
features
and
forbidding
aspect
,
and
so
low
in
stature
as
to
be
quite
a
dwarf
,
though
his
head
and
face
were
large
enough
for
the
body
of
a
giant
.
His
black
eyes
were
restless
,
sly
,
and
cunning
;
his
mouth
and
chin
,
bristly
with
the
stubble
of
a
coarse
hard
beard
;
and
his
complexion
was
one
of
that
kind
which
never
looks
clean
or
wholesome
.
But
what
added
most
to
the
grotesque
expression
of
his
face
was
a
ghastly
smile
,
which
,
appearing
to
be
the
mere
result
of
habit
and
to
have
no
connection
with
any
mirthful
or
complacent
feeling
,
constantly
revealed
the
few
discoloured
fangs
that
were
yet
scattered
in
his
mouth
,
and
gave
him
the
aspect
of
a
panting
dog
.
His
dress
consisted
of
a
large
high
-
crowned
hat
,
a
worn
dark
suit
,
a
pair
of
capacious
shoes
,
and
a
dirty
white
neckerchief
sufficiently
limp
and
crumpled
to
disclose
the
greater
portion
of
his
wiry
throat
.
Such
hair
as
he
had
was
of
a
grizzled
black
,
cut
short
and
straight
upon
his
temples
,
and
hanging
in
a
frowzy
fringe
about
his
ears
.
His
hands
,
which
were
of
a
rough
,
coarse
grain
,
were
very
dirty
;
his
fingernails
were
crooked
,
long
,
and
yellow
.
