Here's the work itself:

if it seems daunting because of its small font, maybe you could put it into Microsoft Word and enlarge it.

Thanks for your initiative.
I already have the work itself, but I guess you can feel when somebody is too tired to read the whole work. I thought it would be better to get an illustration for the work to get a main idea about it before reading it.

Thank you very much

np; i've been up for 25 hours, so i hear you!

looked for more links...

In his account of touring the Tombs, Dickens applies the mordant wit of the satirist to his description of an exchange he had with a prison guard. The guard had explained that the boy in one cramped cell had been locked up for "safe keeping" because he was a witness in the upcoming trial of his father. Dickens asked if this was not hard treatment for the witness, and the guard replied: "Well, it ain't a very rowdy life, and that's a fact!"

i think google's got little to offer because it's part of a larger work, but amn't sure.

It was nice of you to keep searching other sites, Thanks a bunch
I also appreciate your effort of giving such an explaination
yeah, google offers a little on that part of a larger part.

Again, Thanks a lot :)
