_Nick._ Sir, I have more Manners than to be jealous, especially of what I
don't care two pinches of Snuff for. _Enter Servant._ _Ser._ Madam, _Major Bramble_, and his Lady. La. _Rod._ _Major Bramble_, and his Lady! Sir _Har._ Oh! my Lady _Toss-up_, Madam, has marry'd the _Major_; I met 'em coming from _Covent-Garden-Church_, with Five hundred Boys after 'em. _Enter_ Bramble, _and Lady_ Toss-up. _Bram._ Hearing, Madam, your Ladyship had almost engag'd your self, I was resolv'd to lay aside all Animosities, and let you know, I have taken to Wife the most incomparable Lady _Toss-up_. La. _Toss._ And that your Ladyship might not engross the whole Sex, I receiv'd the _Major_, to let you know I have room for one Lover. La. _Rod._ I never knew a more surprizing Couple, such a Conjunction's Policy indeed; State-Matches never have regard to Faces. [_Noise without._] Bring 'em along, bring 'em along. _Enter_ Constable, _and others, with_ Totty, Shrimp, _and_ Knapsack. _Col._ What means this Intrusion? _Con._ Is Sir _Harry Sprightly_ here? |
