WIT。 Not positively must。 But it may�察�it may。
PET。 Yes�察�it positively must�察�upon proof positive。
WIT。 Ay�察�upon proof positive it must�察�but upon proof presumptive it
only may。 That's a logical distinction now�察�madam。
MRS。 MAR。 I perceive your debates are of importance�察 �and very
learnedly handled。
PET。 Importance is one thing and learning's another�察�but a debate's a
debate�察�that I assert。
WIT。 Petulant's an enemy to learning�察�he relies altogether on his parts。
PET。 No�察�I'm no enemy to learning�察�it hurts not me。
MRS。 MAR。 That's a sign�察�indeed�察�it's no enemy to you。
PET。 No�察�no�察�it's no enemy to anybody but them that have it。
MILLA。 Well�察 �an illiterate man's my aversion�察 �I wonder at the
impudence of any illiterate man to offer to make love。
WIT。 That I confess I wonder at�察�too。

can't read�察�than he is from being hanged�拭�The ordinary's paid for setting

enquire further of my horse�察�sir。
PET。 Your horse�察�sir� �Your horse is an ass�察�sir� �
SIR WIL。 Do you speak by way of offence�察�sir�拭�

SIR WIL。 Right�察�lady�察�I am Sir Wilfull Witwoud�察�so I write myself�察�no

mansion。
MRS。 MAR。 Don't you know this gentleman�察�sir�拭�
SIR WIL。 Hum� �What�察 �sure 'tis notyea by'r lady but 'tis 'sheart�察 �I

Art thou o'erjoyed�拭�
WIT。 Odso�察�brother�察�is it you�拭�Your servant�察�brother。
SIR WIL。 Your servant�拭�Why�察�yours�察�sir。 Your servant again 'sheart�察�
and your friend and servant to thatand a��puff�А �and a flap´dragon for
your service�察�sir�察�and a hare's foot and a hare's scut for your service�察�sir�察�an
you be so cold and so courtly� �
WIT。 No offence�察�I hope�察�brother�拭�
SIR WIL。 'Sheart�察 �sir�察 �but there is�察 �and much offence。 A pox�察 �is this
your inns o' court breeding�察�not to know your friends and your relations�察�
your elders�察�and your betters�拭�
WIT。 Why�察 �brother Wilfull of Salop�察 �you may be as short as a
Shrewsbury cake�察 �if you please。 But I tell you 'tis not modish to know
relations in town。 You think you're in the country�察 �where great lubberly
brothers slabber and kiss one another when they meet�察 �like a call of
sergeants。 'Tis not the fashion here�察�'tis not�察�indeed�察�dear brother。
SIR WIL。 The fashion's a fool and you're a fop�察�dear brother。 'Sheart�察�
I've suspected thisby'r lady I conjectured you were a fop�察 �since you
began to change the style of your letters�察�and write in a scrap of paper gilt
round the edges�察�no bigger than a subpoena。 I might expect this when you
left off 'Honoured brother��' and 'Hoping you are in good health��' and so
forth�察�to begin with a 'Rat me�察�knight�察�I'm so sick of a last night's debauch。'
Ods heart�察�and then tell a familiar tale of a cock and a bull�察�and a whore
and a bottle�察�and so conclude。 You could write news before you were out
of your time�察 �when you lived with honest Pumple´Nose�察 �the attorney of
Furnival's Inn。 You could intreat to be remembered then to your friends

round the Wrekin。 We could have Gazettes then�察�and Dawks's Letter�察�and
the Weekly Bill�察�till of late days。
PET。 'Slife�察�Witwoud�察�were you ever an attorney's clerk�拭�Of the family
of the Furnivals�拭�Ha�察�ha�察�ha� �
WIT。 Ay�察�ay�察�but that was but for a while。 Not long�察�not long�察�pshaw�察�I
was not in my own power then。 An orphan�察 �and this fellow was my
guardian�察�ay�察�ay�察�I was glad to consent to that man to come to London。 He
had the disposal of me then。 If I had not agreed to that�察�I might have been
bound prentice to a feltmaker in Shrewsbury�此 �this fellow would have
bound me to a maker of felts。
SIR WIL。 'Sheart�察 �and better than to be bound to a maker of fops�察�
where�察�I suppose�察�you have served your time�察�and now you may set up for
yourself。
MRS。 MAR。 You intend to travel�察�sir�察�as I'm informed�拭�
SIR WIL。 Belike I may�察 �madam。 I may chance to sail upon the salt
seas�察�if my mind hold。
PET。 And the wind serve。
SIR WIL。 Serve or not serve�察�I shan't ask license of you�察�sir�察�nor the
weathercock your companion。 I direct my discourse to the lady�察 �sir。 'Tis
like my aunt may have told you�察�madam�拭�Yes�察�I have settled my concerns�察�
I may say now�察 �and am minded to see foreign parts。 If an how that the
peace holds�察�whereby�察�that is�察�taxes abate。
MRS。 MAR。 I thought you had designed for France at all adventures。
SIR WIL。 I can't tell that�察�'tis like I may�察�and 'tis like I may not。 I am
somewhat dainty in making a resolution�察�because when I make it I keep it。
