longer。 Besides�察�they never mind him�察�they say anything before him。
MIRA。 I thought you had been the greatest favourite。
PET。 Ay�察�tete´e´tete�察�but not in public�察�because I make remarks。
MIRA。 You do�拭�
PET。 Ay�察�ay�察�pox�察�I'm malicious�察�man。 Now he's soft�察�you know�察�they
are not in awe of him。 The fellow's well bred�察�he's what you call awhat
d'ye´call´'ema fine gentleman�察�but he's silly withal。

MIRA。 I thank you�察�I know as much as my curiosity requires。 Fainall�察�
are you for the Mall�拭�
FAIN。 Ay�察�I'll take a turn before dinner。
WIT。 Ay�察�we'll all walk in the park�察�the ladies talked of being there。
MIRA。 I thought you were obliged to watch for your brother Sir
Wilfull's arrival。
WIT。 No�察�no�察�he comes to his aunt's�察�my Lady Wishfort�察�pox on him�察�I
shall be troubled with him too�察�what shall I do with the fool�拭�
PET。 Beg him for his estate�察 �that I may beg you afterwards�察 �and so
have but one trouble with you both。
WIT。 O rare Petulant�察�thou art as quick as fire in a frosty morning�察�thou
shalt to the Mall with us�察�and we'll be very severe。
PET。 Enough�察�I'm in a humour to be severe。
MIRA。 Are you�拭 �Pray then walk by yourselves。 Let not us be
accessory to your putting the ladies out of countenance with your
senseless ribaldry�察�which you roar out aloud as often as they pass by you�察�
and when you have made a handsome woman blush�察�then you think you
have been severe。
PET。 What�察 �what�拭 �Then let 'em either show their innocence by not
understanding what they hear�察�or else show their discretion by not hearing
what they would not be thought to understand。
MIRA。 But hast not thou then sense enough to know that thou ought'st
to be most ashamed thyself when thou hast put another out of
countenance�拭�
PET。 Not I�察�by this hand�此�I always take blushing either for a sign of
guilt or ill´breeding。
MIRA。 I confess you ought to think so。 You are in the right�察�that you
may plead the error of your judgment in defence of your practice。
Where modesty's ill manners�察�'tis but fit That impudence and malice
pass for wit。

SCENE I。
St。 James's Park。
MRS。 FAINALL and MRS。 MARWOOD。
MRS。 FAIN。 Ay�察�ay�察�dear Marwood�察�if we will be happy�察�we must find
the means in ourselves�察�and among ourselves。 Men are ever in extremes�察�
either doting or averse。 While they are lovers�察�if they have fire and sense�察�
their jealousies are insupportable�此�and when they cease to love ��we ought
to think at least�� they loathe�察�they look upon us with horror and distaste�察�
they meet us like the ghosts of what we were�察�and as from such�察�fly from
us。
MRS。 MAR。 True�察 �'tis an unhappy circumstance of life that love
should ever die before us�察 �and that the man so often should outlive the
lover。 But say what you will�察�'tis better to be left than never to have been
loved。 To pass our youth in dull indifference�察�to refuse the sweets of life
because they once must leave us�察 �is as preposterous as to wish to have
been born old�察�because we one day must be old。 For my part�察�my youth
may wear and waste�察�but it shall never rust in my possession。
MRS。 FAIN。 Then it seems you dissemble an aversion to mankind
only in compliance to my mother's humour。
MRS。 MAR。 Certainly。 To be free�察�I have no taste of those insipid dry
discourses with which our sex of force must entertain themselves apart
from men。 We may affect endearments to each other�察 �profess eternal
friendships�察�and seem to dote like lovers�察�but 'tis not in our natures long to
persevere。 Love will resume his empire in our breasts�察�and every heart�察�or
soon or late�察�receive and readmit him as its lawful tyrant。
MRS。 FAIN。 Bless me�察�how have I been deceived� �Why�察�you profess a
libertine。
MRS。 MAR。 You see my friendship by my freedom。 Come�察 �be as
sincere�察�acknowledge that your sentiments agree with mine。
MRS。 FAIN。 Never。
MRS。 MAR。 You hate mankind�拭�
MRS。 FAIN。 Heartily�察�inveterately。

The Way of the World
MRS。 MAR。 Your husband�拭�
MRS。 FAIN。 Most transcendently�察�ay�察�though I say it�察�meritoriously。
MRS。 MAR。 Give me your hand upon it。
MRS。 FAIN。 There。
MRS。 MAR。 I join with you�察�what I have said has been to try you。
MRS。 FAIN。 Is it possible�拭�Dost thou hate those vipers�察�men�拭�
MRS。 MAR。 I have done hating 'em�察�and am now come to despise 'em�察�
the next thing I have to do is eternally to forget 'em。
MRS。 FAIN。 There spoke the spirit of an Amazon�察�a Penthesilea。
MRS。 MAR。 And yet I am thinking sometimes to carry my aversion
further。
MRS。 FAIN。 How�拭�
MRS。 MAR。 Faith�察�by marrying�察�if I could but find one that loved me
very well�察�and would be throughly sensible of ill usage�察�I think I should do
myself the violence of undergoing the ceremony。
MRS。 FAIN。 You would not make him a cuckold�拭�
MRS。 MAR。 No�察�but I'd make him believe I did�察�and that's as bad。
MRS。 FAIN。 Why had not you as good do it�拭�
MRS。 MAR。 Oh�察�if he should ever discover it�察�he would then know the
worst�察�and be out of his pain�察�but I would have him ever to continue upon
the rack of fear and jealousy。
MRS。 FAIN。 Ingenious mischief� �Would thou wert married to
Mirabell。
MRS。 MAR。 Would I were。
MRS。 FAIN。 You change colour。
MRS。 MAR。 Because I hate him。
MRS。 FAIN。 So do I�察�but I can hear him named。 But what reason have
you to hate him in particular�拭�
MRS。 MAR。 I never loved him�察 �he is�察 �and always was�察 �insufferably
proud。
MRS。 FAIN。 By the reason you give for your aversion�察 �one would
think it dissembled�察�for you have laid a fault to his charge�察�of which his
enemies must acquit him。
MRS。 MAR。 Oh�察�then it seems you are one of his favourable enemies。

Methinks you look a little pale�察�and now you flush again。
MRS。 FAIN。 Do I�拭�I think I am a little sick o' the sudden。
MRS。 MAR。 What ails you�拭�
MRS。 FAIN。 My husband。 Don't you see him�拭�He turned short upon
me unawares�察�and has almost overcome me。

SCENE II。
��To them�А�FAINALL and MIRABELL。
MRS。 MAR。 Ha�察�ha�察�ha� �he comes opportunely for you。
MRS。 FAIN。 For you�察�for he has brought Mirabell with him。
FAIN。 My dear。
MRS。 FAIN。 My soul。
FAIN。 You don't look well to´day�察�child。
MRS。 FAIN。 D'ye think so�拭�
MIRA。 He is the only man that does�察�madam。
MRS。 FAIN。 The only man that would tell me so at least�察�and the only
man from whom I could hear it without mortification。
FAIN。 Oh�察 �my dear�察 �I am satisfied of your tenderness�察 �I know you
cannot resent anything from me�察 �especially what is an effect of my
concern。
MRS。 FAIN。 Mr。 Mirabell�察 �my mother interrupted you in a pleasant
relation last night�此�I would fain hear it out。
MIRA。 The persons concerned in that affair have yet a tolerable
reputation。 I am afraid Mr。 Fainall will be censorious。
MRS。 FAIN。 He has a humour more prevailing than his curiosity�察�and
will willingly dispense with the hearing of one scandalous story�察�to avoid
giving an occasion to make another by being seen to walk with his wife。
This way�察�Mr。 Mirabell�察�and I dare promise you will oblige us both。

SCENE III。
FAINALL�察�MRS。 MARWOOD。
FAIN。 Excellent creature� �Well�察�sure�察�if I should live to be rid of my
wife�察�I should be a miserable man。
MRS。 MAR。 Ay�拭�
FAIN。 For having only that one hope�察 �the accomplishment of it of
consequence must put an end to all my hopes�察�and what a wretch is he who
must survive his hopes� �Nothing remains when that day comes but to sit
down and weep like Alexander when he wanted other worlds to conquer。
MRS。 MAR。 Will you not follow 'em�拭�
FAIN。 Faith�察�I think not�察�
MRS。 MAR。 Pray let us�察�I have a reason。
FAIN。 You are not jealous�拭�
MRS。 MAR。 Of whom�拭�
FAIN。 Of Mirabell。
MRS。 MAR。 If I am�察�is it inconsistent with my love to you that I am
tender of your honour�拭�
FAIN。 You would intimate then�察 �as if there were a fellow´feeling
between my wife and him�拭�
MRS。 MAR。 I think she does not hate him to that degree she would be
thought。
FAIN。 But he�察�I fear�察�is too insensible。
MRS。 MAR。 It may be you are deceived。
FAIN。 It may be so。 I do not now begin to apprehend it。
MRS。 MAR。 What�拭�
FAIN。 That I have been deceived�察�ma
