Read this excerpt from oliver twist by charles dickens, and identify the meaning of the words in bold based on their context "it chanced one morning, while oliver's affairs were in this auspicious and comfortable state, that mr. gamfield, chimney-sweep, went his way down the high street, deeply  cogitating  in his mind his ways and means of paying certain areas of rent, for which his landlord had become rather pressing. mr. gamefield's most sanguine estimate of his finances could not raise them within full five pounds of the desired amount; and, in a species of arithmetical desperation, he was alternately  cudgelling  his brains and his donkey, when passing the workhouse, his eyes encountered the bill on the gate.  "! " said mr. gamefield to the donkey. the donkey was in a state of profound abstraction: wondering, probably, whether he was destined to be  regaled  with a cabbage-stalk or two when he had disposed of the two sacks of soot with which the little cart was laden; so, without noticing the word of command, he jogged onward."    (match tile to pair) tiles -rewarded -inventing -straining -punished -yelling belittling -confronted pairs -cogitating -cudgelling -regaled (not all tiles will be used)
