  • The skating scene in The Pickwick Papers. Also the chapter where Sam Weller writes a "walentine":

"[...] So I take the privilidge of the day, Mary, my dear - as the gen'lem'n in difficulties did ven he valked out of a Sunday - to tell you that the first and only time I see you your likeness was took on my hart in much quicker time and brighter colours than ever a likeness was took by the profeel macheen (wich p'raps you may have heerd on Mary my dear) altho it does finish a portrait and put the frame and glass on complete with a hook at the end to hang it up by and all in two minutes and a quarter."
"I am afeerd that werges on the poetical, Sammy," said [Sam's father], dubiously.
