And a custom had grown up of a general tea at four o’clock,
under the auspices of a Miss Garvice, a tall and graceful girl of distinguished
intellectual incompetence, in whom the hostess instinct seemed to be abnormally
developed. When I have traversed the streets a houseless wanderer,
driven with curses from every door where I have solicited alms, and with blows
from every gateway where I have sought shelter,—when I have crept into some
deserted building, and stretched my wearied limbs upon a bulk, in the vain hope
of repose,—or, worse than all, when, frenzied with want, I have yielded to
horrible temptation, and earned a meal in the only way I could earn one,—when
I have felt, at times like these, my heart sink within me, I have drank of this
drink, and have at once forgotten my cares, my poverty, my guilt. The other must call a coach as quickly as he can.
