Excerpt from A Midsummer Lark
Read straight r'along. A very vicious habit in reading is to flip the flying pages till some thing succulent appears, and nabzit, then wait till something else the eye engages. Like Mrs. Todgers when she boiled the chicken, as Bailey said, who'd seen her bend above 'em, She's got a fork and dodgin' round and pickin' the tender pieces out a-catin' of 'em If true the story that precocious sinner told Mercy Pecksniff to improve his status, his worthy mis tress must have spoilt the dinner. And ruined her digestive apparatus.
