- "Liberal terms, Mr. Sowerberry, liberal terms!"
- Oliver rather astonishes Noah.
- "Hello, my covey! What's the row?"
- "Stop thief!"
- "What's become of the boy?"
- "You are on the scent, are you, Nancy?"
- "A beadle! A parish beadle, or I'll eat my head."
- The boy was lying, fast asleep, on a rude bed upon the floor.
- "Directly I leave go of you, do your work. Hark!"
- "Fagin!" whispered a voice close to his ear.
- "Don't sigh, Mrs. Corney," said Mr. Bumble.
- "Just send somebody out to relieve my mate, will you, young man?"
- When it became quite dark, and they returned home, the young lady would sit down to the piano. . . .
- Looking round, he saw that it was a post-chaise, driven at great speed.
- "A few — a very — will suffice, Rose," said the young man, drawing his chair towards her.
- "Were you looking for me," he said, "when you peered in at the window?"
- Then, stooping softly over the bed, she kissed the robber's lips.
- "Look there! Those are the lights of London."
- "What is this?" inquired one of the magistrates. — "A pick-pocketing case, Your. Worship."
- When she was about the same distance in advance as she had been before, he slipped quietly down. . . ."
- He moved, backward, towards the door: dragging the dog with him.
- And creeping over the tiles, looked over the low parapet.
- "Do you know this young lady, sir?"
- He sat down on a stone bench opposite the door.
- Sikes, with Oliver's hand still in his, softly approached the low porch
