It was double-locked as he had locked it with his own hands, and the bolts were undisturbed. He tried to say “Humbug!” but stopped at the first syllable. And being—from the emotion he had undergone, or the fatigues of the day, or his glimpse of the Invisible World, or the dull conversation of the Ghost, or the late¬ness of the hour—much in need of repose, went straight to bed, without un¬dressing, and fell asleep upon the instant. | Christmas Carol 16 recto16 air; incoherent sounds of lamentation and regret; wailings inexpressibly Scrooge followed to the window: [?] desperate in his curiosity.
