(_Exit._ SCENE Changes to the Street. _Enter Sir _Jealous_, with _Marplot_ behind him_._ Sir _Jeal._ I don't know what's the matter; but I have a strong Suspicion, all is not right within; that Fellow's sauntring about my Door, and his Tale of a Puppy, had the Face of a Lye, methought. By St. _Jago_, if I shou'd find a Man in the House, I'd make Mince-Meat of him-- _Marpl._ Ah, poor _Charles_--ha? Agad he is old--I fancy I might bully him, and make _Charles_ have an Opinion of my Courage. Sir _Jeal._ My own Key shall let me in; I'll give them no Warning. (_Feeling for his Key._ _Marpl._ What's that you say, Sir. (_Going up to Sir _Jealous_._ |
