Didn't you, though?--Come, speak up, let us have it. The more the merrier. You were going to say something. (JOB ARTHUR: Nay, you were doing the talking.) Yes, so I was, till you interrupted, with a great idea on the tip of your tongue. Come, spit it out. No matter if Mr. Barlow hears you. You know how sorry for you we feel, that you've always got to make your speeches twice--once to those above, and once to us here below I didn't meant the angels and the devils, but never mind. Speak up, Job Arthur. (JOB ARTHUR: It's not everybody as has as much to say as you, Mr. Houghton.) No, not in the open--that's a fact. Some folks says a great deal more, in semi-private. You were just going to explain to me, on behalf of the men, whom you so ably represent and so wisely lead, Job Arthur--we won't say by the nose--you were just going to tell me--on behalf of the men, of course, not of the masters--that you think of others, besides yourself. Do you mind explaining WHAT others?
