Longer, if I like it; shorter, if I don't. By the by, you told me the other day it was the dream of your life to see me in Parliament, now that 'Old Dick' has decided on leading a sedentary existence,—a very stupid decision on his part, by the way, so clever as he is."，"Who got me out of the water?" asks he, lazily, pretending (hypocrite that he is) to be still overpowered with weakness.
