And never differ again. SIR PETER. No never--tho' at the same time indeed--my dear Lady Teazle--you must watch your Temper very narrowly--for in all our little Quarrels--my dear--if you recollect my Love you always began first-- LADY TEAZLE. I beg your Pardon--my dear Sir Peter--indeed-- you always gave the provocation. SIR PETER. Now--see, my Love take care--contradicting isn't the way to keep Friends. LADY TEAZLE. Then don't you begin it my Love! SIR PETER. There now--you are going on--you don't perceive[,] my Life, that you are just doing the very thing my Love which you know always makes me angry. LADY TEAZLE. Nay--you know if you will be angry without any reason-- my Dear---- SIR PETER. There now you want to quarrel again. |
