DAVID COPPERFIELD AND PEGGOTTY
BY THE PARLOUR FIRE "David Copperfield," Chapter II "Peggotty," says I, suddenly, "were you ever married?" "Lord, Master Davy," replied Peggotty, "what's put marriage in your head?"

ON THE BEACH AT BRIGHTON

PAUL DOMBEY AND FLORENCE
ON THE BEACH AT BRIGHTON "Dombey and Son," Chapter VIII His favourite spot was quite a lonely one, far away from most loungers; and with Florence sitting by his side at work, or reading to him, or talking to him, and the wind blowing on his face, and the water coming up among the wheels of his bed, he wanted nothing more.

LITTLE NELL AND HER GRANDFATHER
AT MRS. JARLEY'S "The Old Curiosity Shop," Chapter XXVI "Set 'em out near the hind wheels, child, that's the best place"—said their friend, superintending the arrangements from above. "Now hand up the teapot for a little more hot water, and a pinch of fresh tea, and then both of you eat and drink as much as you can, and don't spare anything; that's all I ask of you."
