| | It was easier for Tip to bring her to her senses than for her to bring him to understand that the Father of the Marshalsea would be beside himself if he knew the truth. | | | Naturally a retired and simple man, he had shown no particular sense of being ruined at the time when that calamity fell upon him, further than that he left off washing himself when the shock was announced, and never took to that luxury any more. | | | There was no instruction for any of them at home; but she knew well -- no one better -- that a man so broken as to be the Father of the Marshalsea, could be no father to his own children. |

| | Little Dorrit by Charles Dickens 19 |
| | At nineteen, his hand had inscribed in chalk on that part of the wall which fronted her lodgings, on the occasion of her birthday, 'Welcome sweet nursling of the Fairies!' At twenty-three, the same hand falteringly presented cigars on Sundays to the Father of the Marshalsea, and Father of the queen of his soul. | | | Then, being all in all to one another, there was even an appropriate grace in the lock. | | | And so he left her: first observing that she sat down on the corner of a seat, and not only rested her little hand upon the rough wall, but laid her face against it too, as if her head were heavy, and her mind were sad. |

| | As their love one for another grows, they suffer reversals of fortunes that follow them across Europe and back to England before the final resolution of this novel. | | | Much of Dickens' ire is focused upon the institutions of debtor's prisons—in which people who owed money were imprisoned, unable to work, until they repaid their debts. | | | The representative prison in this case is the Marshalsea. |
