Paul turned up the old face for a moment
in which there was a sharp understanding of the reference conveyed in these words: but it was a young and childish face immediately afterwards
when he slipped down from his father's knee
and ran to tell Florence not to cry any more
for he was going to let young Gay have the money.
Mr Dombey then turned to a side-table
and wrote a note and sealed it. During the interval
Paul and Florence whispered to Walter
and Captain Cuttle beamed on the three
with such aspiring and ineffably presumptuous thoughts as Mr Dombey never could have believed in. The note being finished
Mr Dombey turned round to his former place
and held it out to Walter.
'Give that
' he said
'the first thing to-morrow morning
to Mr Carker. He will immediately take care that one of my people releases your Uncle from his present position
by paying the amount at issue; and that such arrangements are made for its repayment as may be consistent with your Uncle's circumstances. You will consider that this is done for you by Master Paul.'
“明天早上第一件事，”他说道，“就是把这交给卡克先生。他会立刻作出安排，让我的一位职员支付那笔钱，把您的舅舅从他目前的困境中解脱出来；偿还的条件也是规定得符合您舅舅的境况的。您就把这看作是保罗少爷为您办的吧！”
Walter
in the emotion of holding in his hand the means of releasing his good Uncle from his trouble
would have endeavoured to express something of his gratitude and joy. But Mr Dombey stopped him short.
'You will consider that it is done
' he repeated
'by Master Paul. I have explained that to him
and he understands it. I wish no more to be said.'
As he motioned towards the door
Walter could only bow his head and retire. Miss Tox
seeing that the Captain appeared about to do the same
interposed.
'My dear Sir
' she said
addressing Mr Dombey
at whose munificence both she and Mrs Chick were shedding tears copiously; 'I think you have overlooked something. Pardon me
Mr Dombey
I think
in the nobility of your character
and its exalted scope
you have omitted a matter of detail.'
'Indeed
Miss Tox!' said Mr Dombey.
'The gentleman with the - Instrument
' pursued Miss Tox
glancing at Captain Cuttle
'has left upon the table
at your elbow - '
'Good Heaven!' said Mr Dombey
sweeping the Captain's property from him
as if it were so much crumb indeed. 'Take these things away. I am obliged to you
Miss Tox; it is like your usual discretion. Have the goodness to take these things away
Sir!'
