_Flint_. Please your honour, the doctor is coming this way with his worship--We are all ready, and have our cues. [_Exit_.] _O'Con_. Then, my dear Trounce, or my dear Sergeant, or my dear Serjeant Trounce, take yourself away. _Trounce_. Zounds! the lieutenant--I smell of the black hole already. [_Exit_.] _Enter_ JUSTICE CREDULOUS _and_ DOCTOR ROSY. _Just_. I thought I saw some of the cut-throats. _Rosy_. I fancy not; there's no one but honest Humphrey. Ha! Odds life, here comes some of them--we'll stay by these trees, and let them pass. _Just_. Oh, the bloody-looking dogs! [_Walks aside with_ DOCTOR ROSY.] _Re-enter_ CORPORAL FLINT _and two_ SOLDIERS. _Flint_. Halloa, friend! do you serve Justice Credulous? _O'Con_. I do. _Flint_. Are you rich? |
