(Interior monologue of Compeyson)
"A fool and his money are soon parted." Never has that been more true. Some might say that what I do is wrong, but they are the ones guilty of error. It's not wromg to break the law, it's all part of the natural order of life. I weed out the gullible folk. Others will then learn to be on their toes. I teach the human race a lesson. People should be thanking me for helping them. Swindling is honest work; just like any other trained laborer, I must use my skill and wits to make a living. I do wonder what has become of Magwitch. That was a smooth job, pinning the blame on him. I got off easy. Was that just? Perhaps I-- No. He's a fool and a barbaric murderer. He tried to kill me! He's still at large, somewhere in the world. I must do something about him.
