Why, of course you wanted to get in, Mr. Bucket asserts with cheerfulness; but for a old gentleman at your time of life […] not to consider that if he don't keep such a business as the present as close as possible it can't be worth a mag to him, is so curious! You see your temper got the better of you; that's where you lost ground, says Mr. Bucket in an argumentative and friendly way.
