3 The street was very narrow and muddy, and the air was impregnated with filthy odours.
4 He trembled very much though; for, even in his terror, Oliver could see that the knife quivered in the air.
5 Another night passed in the bleak damp air, made him worse; when he set forward on his journey next morning he could hardly crawl along.
6 Seated round the table were four or five boys, none older than the Dodger, smoking long clay pipes, and drinking spirits with the air of middle-aged men.
7 Upon this piece of furniture, the stranger sat himself with the air of a weary man; and the Jew, drawing up the arm-chair opposite, they sat face to face.
8 These seemed to have the effect of re-assuring both gentlemen; for the Jew nodded his head with a satisfied air, and resumed his seat: as did Mr. Sikes likewise.
9 At length, he began to languish for fresh air, and took many occasions of earnestly entreating the old gentleman to allow him to go out to work with his two companions.
10 There was an abstraction in his eye, an elevation in his air, which might have warned an observant stranger that thoughts were passing in the beadle's mind, too great for utterance.
