LORD FROTH. With all my heart; methinks we are a solitude without
'em. MEL. Or what say you to another bottle of champagne? LORD FROTH. Oh, for the universe not a drop more, I beseech you. Oh, intemperate! I have a flushing in my face already. [Takes out a pocket-glass and looks in it.] BRISK. Let me see, let me see, my lord, I broke my glass that was in the lid of my snuff-box. Hum! Deuce take me, I have encouraged a pimple here too. [Takes the glass and looks.] LORD FROTH. Then you must mortify him with a patch; my wife shall supply you. Come, gentlemen, ALLONS, here is company coming. SCENE VI. LADY TOUCHWOOD and MASKWELL. LADY TOUCH. I'll hear no more. You are false and ungrateful; come, I know you false. MASK. I have been frail, I confess, madam, for your ladyship's service. LADY TOUCH. That I should trust a man whom I had known betray his friend! |
