Match each word or phrase to the appropriate meaning based on its context in this excerpt from mark twain's "the £1,000,000 bank-note": then he was restored to his normal condition, and made a thousand apologies for not being able to break the bill, and i couldn't get him to touch it. he wanted to look at it, and keep on looking at it; he couldn't seem to get enough of it to quench the thirst of his eye, but he shrank from touching it as if it had been something too sacred for poor common clay to handle. i said: "i am sorry if it is an inconvenience, but i must insist. change it; i haven't anything else." but he said that wasn't any matter; he was quite willing to let the trifle stand over till another time. i said i might not be in his neighborhood again for a good while; but he said it was of no consequence, he could wait, and, moreover, i could have anything i wanted, any time i chose, and let the account run as long as i . he said he hoped he wasn't afraid to trust as rich a gentleman as i was, merely because i was of a merry disposition, and chose to play larks on the public in the matter of dress.

Which three parts of this passage from chapter 6 of emily brontë's wuthering heights show that hindley earnshaw did not care about the well-being of catherine and heathcliff after the death of mr. earnshaw? they both promised fair to grow up as rude as savages; the young master being entirely negligent how they behaved, and what they did, so they kept clear of him. he would not even have seen after their going to church on sundays, only joseph and the curate reprimanded his carelessness when they absented themselves; and that reminded him to order heathcliff a flogging, and catherine a fast from dinner or supper. but it was one of their chief amusements to run away to the moors in the morning and remain there all day, and the after punishment grew a mere thing to laugh at. the curate might set as many chapters as he for catherine to get by heart, and joseph might thrash heathcliff till his arm ached; they forgot everything the minute they were together again: at least the minute they had contrived some naughty plan of revenge; and many a time i’ve cried to myself to watch them growing more reckless daily, and i not daring to speak a syllable, for fear of losing the small power i still retained over the unfriended creatures. one sunday evening, it chanced that they were banished from the sitting-room, for making a noise, or a light offence of the kind; and when i went to call them to supper, i could discover them nowhere. we searched the house, above and below, and the yard and stables; they were invisible: and, at last, hindley in a passion told us to bolt the doors, and swore nobody should let them in that night. the household went to bed; and i, too, anxious to lie down, opened my lattice and put my head out to hearken, though it rained: determined to admit them in spite of the prohibition, should they return.
