ask'd him, if he did'nt think himself capable of doing a Ladies Business?
which put _John_ so much out of Countenance he did'nt know what to say to
her: Upon which, first Embracing the Dull Fool in her Arms, Come, says she,
let's see how well you're furnish'd: And then putting her Hand into his

her, she would call to her Man to Kick him out of the Shop: Which
disdainful Carriage did so much exasperate him, that he replyed with some
