Which part of this excerpt from Charles Dickens's Oliver Twist suggests a trace of humane feeling in Mr. Bumble's character?

Mr. Bumble is a cruel person but deep inside he has a soft spot. When Oliver Twist broke down in front of him crying and sobbing, Mr. Bumble actually felt pity towards the boy although he tried his best not to show it. Mr. Bumble thinks that showing pity for the poor is a sign of weakness which is really ironic because he's a beadle - - a person who runs all the charitable institutions in the parish.
