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

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.
