reason to thank her, as you shall know, perhaps at my return.--I go in my
coach, Mrs. Jewkes, because I take Lady Darnford, and Mrs. Peters's
niece, and one of Lady Darnford's daughters, along with me; and Sir Simon
and his other daughter go in his chariot: so let all the gates be
fastened; and don't take any airing in either of the chariots, nor let
any body go to the gate, without you, Mrs. Jewkes. I'll be sure, said
she, to obey your honour.

I will give Mrs. Jewkes no trouble, sir, said I; and will keep pretty
much in my chamber, and not stir so much as into the garden without her;
to shew you I will obey in every thing I can. But I begin to fear--Ay,
said he, more plots and contrivances, don't you?--But I'll assure you,
you never had less reason; and I tell you the truth; for I am really
going to Stamford this time; and upon the occasion I tell you. And so,
Pamela, give me your hand, and one kiss; and then I am gone.

I durst not refuse, and said, God bless you, sir, wherever you go!--But I
am sorry for what you tell me about your servants!

He and Mrs. Jewkes had a little talk without the door; and I heard her
say, You may depend, sir, upon my care and vigilance.

He went in his coach, as he said he should, and very richly dressed,
which looks as if what he said was likely: but really I have been used to
so many tricks, and plots, and surprises, that I know not what to think.
But I mourn for poor Mrs. Jervis.--So here is Parson Williams; here's
poor naughty John; here is good Mrs. Jervis, and Mr. Longman, and Mr.
Jonathan, turned away for me!--Mr. Longman is rich, indeed, and so need
the less matter it; but I know it will grieve him: and for poor Mr.
Jonathan, I am sure it will cut that good old servant to the heart. Alas
