should tell me herself。 Which of the two it may have been�察�I will leave you 

to consider�察�and when you have done thinking of that�察�think of me。

     MIRA。  I   have   something   more。Gone� �Think   of   you�拭�To   think   of   a 

whirlwind�察  �though   'twere   in   a   whirlwind�察  �were   a   case   of   more   steady 

contemplation�察�a very tranquillity of mind and mansion。 A fellow that lives 

in a windmill has not a more whimsical dwelling than the heart of a man 

that is lodged in a woman。 There is no point of the compass to which they 

cannot   turn�察  �and   by   which   they   are   not   turned�察  �and   by   one   as   well   as 

another�察�for motion�察�not method�察�is their occupation。 To know this�察�and yet 

continue to be in love�察�is to be made wise from the dictates of reason�察�and 

yet persevere to play the fool by the force of instinct。Oh�察�here come my 

pair of turtles。 What�察�billing so sweetly�拭�Is not Valentine's day over with 

you yet�拭�

could。

more。

prospect   of   seeing   Sir   Rowland�察  �your   uncle�察  �and   that   I   would   put   her 

ladyship's picture in my pocket to show him�察�which I'll be sure to say has 

made him so enamoured of her beauty�察�that he burns with impatience to lie 

at her ladyship's feet and worship the original。 

     MIRA。 Excellent Foible� �Matrimony has made you eloquent in love。 

     WAIT。 I think she has profited�察�sir。 I think so。

opportunity�察�she had so much company last night。

Married�察�knighted�察�and attended all in one day� �'Tis enough to make any 

man forget himself。 The difficulty will be how to recover my acquaintance

reformation     into   Waitwell。    Nay�察  �I  shan't  be  quite   the  same   Waitwell
