JESSAMY
I have the honour to be Mr. Dimple's servant, or, if you please, waiter. We lodge under the same roof, and should be glad of the honour of your acquaintance. JONATHAN You a waiter! by the living jingo, you look so top- ping, I took you for one of the agents to Congress. JESSAMY The brute has discernment, notwithstanding his appearance.--Give me leave to say I wonder then at your familiarity. JONATHAN Why, as to the matter of that, Mr.--; pray, what's your name? JESSAMY Jessamy, at your service. |
