An electrical agent, an over-ripe pear, a wooden leg, Mr. Dickens' best
novel, half a dragon, a scapegrace, a young frog, an easy-chair, a
French divine, a celebrated map, part of a lady's dress, a London club,
and the sixth of a Knight of the Garter. The initials describe what the
reader is, the finals what he may be if he likes, and the middle letter
what he can never be, though his father was, and his child must be.
