Sir _Jeal._ Ay, want; have you a Letter or Message for any Body there?--O my Conscience, this is some He-Bawd-- _Whisp._ Letter or Message, Sir! Sir _Jeal._ Ay, Letter or Message, Sir. _Whisp._ No, not I, Sir. Sir _Jeal._ Sirrah, Sirrah, I'll have you set in the Stocks, if you don't tell me your Business immediately. _Whisp._ Nay, Sir, my Business--is no great matter of Business neither; and yet 'tis Business of Consequence too. Sir _Jeal._ Sirrah, don't trifle with me. _Whisp._ Trifle, Sir, have you found him, Sir? Sir _Jeal._ Found what, you Rascal. _Whisp._ Why _Trifle_ is the very Lap-Dog my Lady lost, Sir; I fancy'd I see him run into this House. I'm glad you have him--Sir, my Lady will be over-joy'd that 1 have found him. Sir _Jeal._ Who is your Lady Friend? _Whisp._ My Lady Love-puppy, Sir. |
