Pipes was very much chagrined at these injunctions , to which he made no reply ; but , sweeping the money into his bag , stalked off in silence , with a look of grief and mortification , which his countenance had never exhibited before . Nor was the proud heart of Pickle unmoved upon the occasion ; he could scarce suppress his sorrow in the presence of Pipes , and , soon as he was gone , it vented itself in tears . Having no great pleasure in conversing with his own thoughts , he dressed himself with all convenient despatch , being attended by one of the occasional valets of the place , who had formerly been a rich mercer in the city ; and , this operation being performed , he went to breakfast at the coffee-house , where he happened to meet with his friend the clergyman and several persons of genteel appearance , to whom the doctor introduced him as a new messmate . By these gentlemen he was conducted to a place where they spent the forenoon in playing at fives , an exercise in which our hero took singular delight ; and about one o'clock a court was held , for the trial of two delinquents , who had transgressed the laws of honesty and good order . The first who appeared at the bar was an attorney , accused of having picked a gentleman 's pocket of his handkerchief . And the fact being proved by incontestable evidence , he received sentence . In consequence of which , he was immediately carried to the public pump , and subjected to a severe cascade of cold water .
