CHAPTER XIA Companion Picture
`SYDNEY,' said Mr. Stryver, on that self-same night, ormorning, to his jackal; `mix another bowl of punch; I havesomething to say to you.'
Sydney had been working double tides that night, and thenight before, and the night before that, and a good manynights in succession, making a grand clearance 1 among Mr.
Stryver's papers before the setting in of the long vacation.
The clearance was effected at last; the Stryver arrears 2 werehandsomely fetched up; everything was got rid of untilNovember should come with its fogs atmospheric 3 and fogs legal,and bring grist to the mill again.
Sydney was none the livelier and none the soberer for so muchapplication. It had taken a deal of extra wet-towelling topull him through the night; a correspondingly extra quantityof wine had preceded the towelling; and he was in a verydamaged condition, as he now pulled his turban off and threwit into the basin in which he had steeped it at intervals 4 forthe last six hours.
`Are you mixing that other bowl of punch?' said Stryver theportly, with his hands in his waistband, glancing round fromthe sofa where he lay on his back,`I am.'
`Now, look here! I am going to tell you something that willrather surprise you, and that perhaps will make you think menot quite as shrewd as you usually do think me. I intend tomarry.
`Do you?'
`Yes. And not for money. What do you say now?'
`I don't feel disposed to say much. Who is she?'
`Guess.'
`Do I know her?'
`Guess.'
`I am not going to guess, at five o'clock in the morning,with my brains frying and sputtering 5 in my, head. If you wantme to guess, you must ask me to dinner.
`Well then, I'll tell you,' said Stryver, coming slowly intoa sitting posture 6. `Sydney, I rather despair of making myselfintelligible to you, because you are such an insensible dog.'
`And you,' returned Sydney, busy concocting 7 the punch, `aresuch a sensitive and poetical 8 spirit.'
`Come!' rejoined Stryver, laughing boastfully, `though Idon't prefer any claim to being the soul of Romance (for Ihope I, know better), still I am a tenderer sort of fellowthan you.
