ANG. Where is Sir Sampson? Did you not tell me he would be here
before me? JENNY. He's at the great glass in the dining-room, madam, setting his cravat and wig. ANG. How! I'm glad on't. If he has a mind I should like him, it's a sign he likes me; and that's more than half my design. JENNY. I hear him, madam. ANG. Leave me; and, d'ye hear, if Valentine should come, or send, I am not to be spoken with. SCENE II. ANGELICA, SIR SAMPSON. SIR SAMP. I have not been honoured with the commands of a fair lady a great while,--odd, madam, you have revived me,--not since I was five-and-thirty. ANG. Why, you have no great reason to complain, Sir Sampson, that is not long ago. SIR SAMP. Zooks, but it is, madam, a very great while: to a man that admires a fine woman as much as I do. |
