Dronk? Eh? he said. But he was not really thinking about Cockney's state.
gpt
What I do? he asked of the rivet-studded ceiling, and answered himself:
human
Nozing!
gpt
Was there anything important in your valise?
human
Important? Suit of clothes, for go home.
gpt
Never mind, Pierre, he said.
human
Never mind. You've a shoot of clothes on. What's the matter with them? They're all right!
gpt
Lettairs--from my vife.
human
That's his wife! 'E's got a wife! Too bad.
gpt
Militar' papers,
human
You come ashore with me,
gpt
Ashore?
human
Yes, we'll go to the police office.
gpt
Police--eh? Non, non! Not leesten. 'Valise gone!' they say. 'You go with cattle? No matter!'
human
You go with this fellow, Pierre, he said.
gpt
You go police with this fellow. He talkee alla same upper ten. You savvey? You savvey toff in disguise?
human
Toff? Oh, me elbow! shouted somebody, which seemed an insulting phrase in the society in which they moved. There was an offer, on Scholar's behalf, to paste a face because of it, an acceptance, a scrimmage.
gpt
Don't! Don't! Don't!
human
We'll go ashore,
gpt
No, no matter. They say, and Pierre waved a hand at the recent fighters and the watchers of the fighters,

Push --those that were left of it--to stagger. Somebody outside said:
gpt
We're off! Is the push aboard? Where's Jack? Where's Johnnie? Where's Mike?
human
Mike, is it? answered a voice.
gpt
Here he is. Who is the man that has a valise?
human
Glory! shouted Cockney. '
gpt
Ere's yer old valise, Pierre!
human
Ma valise!
gpt
Is it yours? Well, if ye had been an Englishman, or a Scotsman, or an Irishman, or a Bostoner, I would have had to hit ye for havin' a valise, but seein' ye're a Frenchman and all alone like, here's your ruddy trunk!
human
Your head's bleedin', Mike,
gpt
Is it me head? asked Mike.
human
So is me fist. I met the spalpeen runnin' down the gangway when I'm runnin' up. 'Where ye goin' wid the trunk?' I says, and he swings it up and hits me over the head wid it, and I knocks his teeth out for him. Whin ye see luggage goin' off a ship after the Blue Peter's up, its a good rule ivery toime to grapple wid the man that's carrying it.
