said Scrooge to the Ghost . `` Bless me , yes . There he is . He was very much attached to me , was Dick . Poor Dick ! Dear , dear ! '' `` Yo ho , my boys ! '' said Fezziwig . `` No more work to-night . Christmas-eve , Dick . Christmas , Ebenezer ! Let 's have the shutters up , '' cried old Fezziwig with a sharp clap of his hands , `` before a man can say Jack Robinson ! '' You would n't believe how those two fellows went at it ! They charged into the street with the shutters -- one , two , three -- had 'em up in their places -- four , five , six -- barred 'em and pinned 'em -- seven , eight , nine -- and came back before you could have got to twelve , panting like race-horses . `` Hilli-ho ! '' cried old Fezziwig , skipping down from the high desk with wonderful agility . `` Clear away , my lads , and let 's have lots of room here ! Hilli-ho , Dick ! Chirrup , Ebenezer ! '' Clear away !
There was nothing they would n't have cleared away , or could n't have cleared away , with old XXXXX looking on .
