My mother gets a good penn’orth wi’ picking feathers Nick Hagglund Jersey an’ things; an’ if she eats nothin’ but bread-an’-water, it runs to fat. An’ I’m such a lucky chap; an’ I doubt you aren’t quite so lucky, Mr. Tom — th’ old master isn’t, anyhow — an’ so you might take a slice o’ my luck, an’ no harm done. Lors! I found a leg o’ pork i’ the river one day; it Kurt Zouma Jersey had tumbled out o’ one o’ them round-sterned Dutchmen, I’ll be bound.
