up and down steps out of one room into another�察�and   where  you 

come   upon  more   rooms   when   you   think   you   have   seen   all   there 

are�察  �and   where   there   is   a   bountiful   provision   of   little   halls   and 

passages�察     �and     where     you    find   still  older�察   �cottage´rooms       in 

unexpected        places�察   �with    lattice   windows       and    green     growth 

pressing through them。 Mine�察�which we entered first�察  �was   of  this 

kind�察�with an up´and´down roof�察�that had more corners in it than I 

ever counted afterwards�察�and a chimney ��there was a wood´fire on 

the hearth�� paved all around with pure white tiles�察�in every one of 

which a bright miniature of the fire was blazing。 Out of this room�察�

you    went    down     two   steps    into   a  charming      little  sitting´room�察�

looking  down   upon   a  flower´garden�察  �which  room   was   henceforth 

to belong to Ada and me。 Out of this you went up three steps�察�into 

Ada¨s   bedroom�察  �which   had   a   fine   broad   window�察  �commanding   a

beautiful      view   ��we    saw    a   great   expanse      of  darkness      lying 

underneath the stars���察�to which there was a hollow window´seat�察�in 

which�察�with a spring´lock�察�three dear Adas might have been lost at 

once。 Out of this room�察�you passed into a little gallery�察�with which 

the other best rooms ��only two�� communicated�察�and so�察�by a little 

staircase   of   shallow   steps�察  �with   a   number   of   corner   stairs   in   it�察�

considering its length�察�down into the hall。 But if�察�instead of going 

out at Ada¨s door�察�you came back into my room�察�and went out  at 

the door by which you had entered it�察�and turned up a few crooked 

steps that branched off in an unexpected manner from the stairs�察�

you   lost   yourself   in   passages�察  �with   mangles   in   them�察  �and   three´ 

cornered tables�察�and a Native´Hindoo chair�察�which was also a sofa�察�

a   box�察  �and    a  bedstead�察   �and    looked    in  every   form�察   �something 

between a bamboo skeleton and a great bird´cage�察  �and   had been 

brought from India nobody knew by whom or when。 From these�察�

you came on Richard¨s room�察�which was part library�察�part sitting´ 

room�察�part bedroom�察�and seemed indeed a comfortable compound 

of many rooms。 Out of that�察�you went straight�察�with a little interval 

of passage�察�to the plain room where Mr Jarndyce slept�察�all the year 

round�察�with his window open�察�his bedstead without any furniture 

standing in the middle of the floor for more air�察�and his cold´bath 

gaping for him in a smaller room adjoining。 Out of that�察�you came 

into another passage�察�where there were backstairs�察�and where you 

could hear the horses being rubbed down�察�outside the stable�察�and 

being   told   to   Hold   up�察  �and   Get   over�察  �as   they   slipped   about   very 

much   on   the   uneven   stones。   Or   you   might�察  �if   you   came   out   at 

another door ��every room had at least two doors���察�go straight down 

to   the   hall   again    by  half´a´dozen      steps   and    a  low    archway�察�

wondering how you got back there�察�or had ever got out of it。

    The   furniture�察  �old´fashioned   rather   than         old�察  �like  the  house�察�

was as pleasantly irregular。 Ada¨s sleeping´room was all flowers! 

in chintz and paper�察�in velvet�察�in needlework�察�in the brocade of two 

stiff courtly chairs�察�which stood�察�each attended by a little page of a 

stool for greater state�察�on either side of the fireplace。 Our sitting´ 

room   was      green�察  �and    had�察  �framed     and   glazed�察  �upon     the   walls�察�

numbers of surprising and surprised birds�察�staring out of pictures 

at   a   real   trout   in   a   case�察  �as   brown   and   shining   as   if   it   had   been 

served with gravy�察�at the death of Captain Cook�察�and at the whole 

process of preparing tea in China�察�as depicted by Chinese artists。 

In my room there were oval engravings of the months!ladies hay´ 

making�察  �in   short   waists�察  �and   large   hats   tied   under   the   chin�察  �for 

June!smooth´legged             noblemen�察     �pointing�察   �with    cocked    hats�察  �to 

village´steeples�察      �for  October。     Half´length      portraits�察  �in   crayons�察�

abounded   all      through   the     house�察   �but   were    so  dispersed     that   I 

found the brother of a youthful officer of mine in the china´closet�察�

and the grey old age of my pretty young bride�察�with a flower in her 

bodice�察�in the breakfast room。 As substitutes�察�I had four angels�察�of 

Queen Anne¨s reign�察�taking a complacent gentleman to heaven�察�in 

festoons�察  �with   some   difficulty�察  �and   a   composition   in   needlework�察�

representing   fruit�察  �a   kettle�察  �and   an   alphabet。   All   the   moveables�察�

from   the   wardrobes   to   the   chairs   and   tables�察  �hangings�察  �glasses�察�

even   to  the   pincushions  and   scent´bottles  on   the   dressing´tables�察�

displayed   the   same   quaint   variety。   They   agreed   in   nothing   but 

their perfect neatness�察�their display of the whitest linen�察�and their 

storing´up�察�wheresoever the existence of a drawer�察�small or large�察�

rendered       it  possible�察    �of  quantities     of   rose´leaves     and    sweet 

lavender。   Such�察  �with   its   illuminated   windows�察  �softened   here   and 

there by shadows of curtains�察�shining out upon the starlight night�察�

with its light�察�and warmth�察�and comfort�察�with its hospitable jingle�察�

at   a  distance�察    �of  preparations      for  dinner�察    �with   the   face   of  its 

generous   master   brightening   everything   we   saw�察  �and   just   wind 

enough without to sound a low accompaniment  to  everything  we 

heard�察�were our first impressions of Bleak House。 

    ^I am glad you like it�察院�said Mr Jarndyce�察�when he had brought 

us   round   again   to   Ada¨s   sitting´room。   ^It   makes   no   pretensions�察�

but it is a comfortable little place�察�I hope�察�and will be more so with 

such bright young looks in it。 You have barely half an hour before 

dinner。 There¨s no one here but the finest creature upon earth!a 

child。 ̄ 

    ^More children�察�Esther� 院�said Ada。 

    ^I   don¨t   mean   literally   a   child�察院  �pursued   Mr   Jarndyce�察   �not   a 

child in years。 He is grown up!he is at least as old as I am!but in 

simplicity�察    �and   freshness�察    �and   enthusiasm�察      �and   a  fine   guileless 

inaptitude for all worldly affairs�察�he is a perfect child。 ̄ 

    We felt that he must be very interesting。 

    ^He   knows   Mrs   Jellyby�察院  �said   Mr   Jarndyce。   ^He   is   a   musical 

man�察  �an   Amateur�察  �but   might   have   been   a   Professional。   He   is   an 

Artist�察�too�察�an Amateur�察�but might have been a Professional。 He is 

a   man   of   attainments   and   of   captivating   manners。   He   has   been 

unfortunate   in   his   affairs�察  �and   unfortunate   in   his   pursuits�察  �and 

unfortunate in his family�察�but he don¨t care!he¨s a child� 院�

    ^Did you imply that he has children of his own�察�sir�拭院�inquired 

Richard。 

    ^Yes。   Rick�  �Half´a´dozen。   More�  �Near  a   dozen�察  �I   should   think。 

But   he   has   never   looked   after   them。   How   could   he�拭  �He   wanted 

somebody   to   look   after  him。   He   is   a   child�察  �you   know� 院  �said   Mr 

Jarndyce。

    ^And     have   the   children   looked     after   themselves     at   all�察 �sir�拭院�

inquired Richard。 

    ^Why�察     �just  as   you    may    suppose�察院     �said   Mr    Jarndyce�此    �his 

countenance   suddenly   falling。   ^It   is   said   that   the   children   of   the 

very poor are not brought up�察�but dragged up。 Harold Skimpole¨s 

children have tumbled up somehow or other。!The wind¨s getting 

round again�察�I am afraid。 I feel it rather� 院�

    Richard   observed   that   the   situation   was   exposed   on   a   sharp 

night。 

    ^It is exposed�察院�said Mr Jarndyce。 ^No doubt  that¨s   the   cause。 

Bleak House has an exposed sound。 But you are coming my way。 

Come along� 院�

    Our    luggage     having    arrived�察   �and   being    all  at  hand�察   �I  was 

dressed   in   a   few   minutes�察    �and   engaged     in  putting    my   worldly 

goods   away�察  �when   a   maid   ��not   the   one   in   attendance   upon   Ada�察�

but another whom I had not seen�� brought a basket into my room�察�

with two bunches of keys in it�察�all labelled。 

    ^For you�察�miss�察�if you please�察院�said she。 

    ^For me�拭院�said I。 

    ^The housekeeping keys�察�miss。 ̄ 

    I showed my surprise�察�for she added�察�with  some   little   surprise 

on   her   own   part�此   �I   was   told   to   bring   them   as   soon   as   you   was 

alone�察�miss。 Miss Summerson�察�if I don¨t deceive myself�拭院�

    ^Yes�察院�said I。 ^That is my name。 ̄ 

    ^The   large   bunch   is   the   housekeeping�察  �and   the   little   bunch   is 

the cellars�察�miss。 Any time   you  was pleased  to  appoint  tomorrow 

morning�察�I was to show you the presses and things they belong to。 ̄ 

    I said I would be ready at half´past six�此�and�察�after she was gone�察�
