FIRST FELLOW Now�察�gentlemen�察�silence for a song。 The 'squire

is going to knock himself down for a song。
OMNES。 Ay�察�a song�察�a song� �
TONY。 Then I'll sing you�察 �gentlemen�察 �a song I made upon this
alehouse�察�the Three Pigeons。
SONG。
Let schoolmasters puzzle their brain With grammar�察 �and
nonsense�察 �and learning�察 �Good liquor�察 �I stoutly maintain�察 �Gives
GENUS a better discerning。 Let them brag of their heathenish gods�察�
Their Lethes�察�their Styxes�察�and Stygians�察�Their Quis�察�and their Quaes�察�and
their Quods�察 �They're all but a parcel of Pigeons。
Toroddle�察�toroddle�察�toroll。
When methodist preachers come down�察 �A´preaching that
drinking is sinful�察 �I'll wager the rascals a crown�察 �They always
preach best with a skinful。 But when you come down with your pence�察�
For a slice of their scurvy religion�察 �I'll leave it to all men of sense�察�
But you�察�my good friend�察�are the Pigeon。 Toroddle�察�toroddle�察�
toroll。
Then come�察�put the jorum about�察 �And let us be merry and clever�察�
Our hearts and our liquors are stout�察 �Here's the Three Jolly Pigeons
for ever。 Let some cry up woodcock or hare�察 �Your bustards�察 �your
ducks�察 �and your widgeons�察 �But of all the GAY birds in the air�察�
Here's a health to the Three Jolly Pigeons。 Toroddle�察�toroddle�察�
toroll。
OMNES。 Bravo�察�bravo� �
FIRST FELLOW。 The 'squire has got spunk in him。
SECOND FELLOW。 I loves to hear him sing�察 �bekeays he never
gives us nothing that's low。
THIRD FELLOW。 O damn anything that's low�察�I cannot bear it。
FOURTH FELLOW。 The genteel thing is the genteel thing any time�此�
if so be that a gentleman bees in a concatenation accordingly。
THIRD FELLOW。 I likes the maxum of it�察�Master Muggins。 What�察�
though I am obligated to dance a bear�察�a man may be a gentleman for all
that。 May this be my poison�察 �if my bear ever dances but to the very
genteelest of tunes�察 �Water Parted�察─�or ;The minuet in Ariadne。;

SECOND FELLOW。 What a pity it is the 'squire is not come to his
own。 It would be well for all the publicans within ten miles round of
him。
TONY。 Ecod�察�and so it would�察�Master Slang。 I'd then show what it
was to keep choice of company。
SECOND FELLOW。 O he takes after his own father for that。 To be
sure old 'Squire Lumpkin was the finest gentleman I ever set my eyes on。
For winding the straight horn�察�or beating a thicket for a hare�察�or a wench�察�
he never had his fellow。 It was a saying in the place�察�that he kept the best
horses�察�dogs�察�and girls�察�in the whole county。
TONY。 Ecod�察�and when I'm of age�察�I'll be no bastard�察�I promise you。
I have been thinking of Bet Bouncer and the miller's grey mare to begin
with。 But come�察 �my boys�察 �drink about and be merry�察 �for you pay no
reckoning。 Well�察�Stingo�察�what's the matter�拭�
Enter Landlord。
LANDLORD。 There be two gentlemen in a post´chaise at the door。
They have lost their way upo' the forest�察�and they are talking something
about Mr。 Hardcastle。
TONY。 As sure as can be�察�one of them must be the gentleman that's
coming down to court my sister。 Do they seem to be Londoners�拭�
LANDLORD。 I believe they may。 They look woundily like
Frenchmen。
TONY。 Then desire them to step this way�察�and I'll set them right in a
twinkling。 ��Exit Landlord。�� Gentlemen�察�as they mayn't be good enough
company for you�察 �step down for a moment�察 �and I'll be with you in the
squeezing of a lemon。 ��Exeunt mob。�А�
TONY。 ��solus��。 Father´in´law has been calling me whelp and
hound this half year。 Now�察�if I pleased�察�I could be so revenged upon the
old grumbletonian。 But then I'm afraidafraid of what�拭 �I shall soon be
worth fifteen hundred a year�察�and let him frighten me out of THAT if he
can。
Enter Landlord�察�conducting MARLOW and HASTINGS。
MARLOW。 What a tedious uncomfortable day have we had of it� �
We were told it was but forty miles across the country�察�and we have come
13
´ Page 14´
;SHE STOOPS TO CONQUER;
above threescore。
HASTINGS。 And all�察 �Marlow�察 �from that unaccountable reserve of
yours�察�that would not let us inquire more frequently on the way。
MARLOW。 I own�察�Hastings�察�I am unwilling to lay myself under an
obligation to every one I meet�察 �and often stand the chance of an
unmannerly answer。
HASTINGS。 At present�察�however�察 �we are not likely to receive any
answer。
TONY。 No offence�察 �gentlemen。 But I'm told you have been
inquiring for one Mr。 Hardcastle in these parts。 Do you know what part
of the country you are in�拭�
HASTINGS。 Not in the least�察 �sir�察 �but should thank you for
information。
TONY。 Nor the way you came�拭�
HASTINGS。 No�察�sir�此�but if you can inform us
TONY。 Why�察�gentlemen�察�if you know neither the road you are going�察�
nor where you are�察�nor the road you came�察�the first thing I have to inform
you is�察�thatyou have lost your way。
MARLOW。 We wanted no ghost to tell us that。
TONY。 Pray�察�gentlemen�察�may I be so bold so as to ask the place from
whence you came�拭�
MARLOW。 That's not necessary towards directing us where we are
to go。
TONY。 No offence�察�but question for question is all fair�察�you know。
Pray�察�gentlemen�察�is not this same Hardcastle a cross´grained�察�old´fashioned�察�
whimsical fellow�察�with an ugly face�察�a daughter�察�and a pretty son�拭�
HASTINGS。 We have not seen the gentleman�察�but he has the family
you mention。
TONY。 The daughter�察�a tall�察�trapesing�察�trolloping�察�talkative maypole�察�
the son�察�a pretty�察�well´bred�察�agreeable youth�察�that everybody is fond of。
MARLOW。 Our information differs in this。 The daughter is said to
be well´bred and beautiful�察 �the son an awkward booby�察 �reared up and
spoiled at his mother's apron´string。
TONY。 He´he´hem��Then�察�gentlemen�察�all I have to tell you is�察�that
14
´ Page 15´
;SHE STOOPS TO CONQUER;
you won't reach Mr。 Hardcastle's house this night�察�I believe。
HASTINGS。 Unfortunate� �
TONY。 It's a damn'd long�察 �dark�察 �boggy�察 �dirty�察 �dangerous way。
Stingo�察�tell the gentlemen the way to Mr。 Hardcastle's� 。�Winking upon
the Landlord。�� Mr。 Hardcastle's�察�of Quagmire Marsh�察�you understand me。
LANDLORD。 Master Hardcastle's� �Lock´a´daisy�察 �my masters�察�
you're come a deadly deal wrong� �When you came to the bottom of the
hill�察�you should have crossed down Squash Lane。
MARLOW。 Cross down Squash Lane� �
LANDLORD。 Then you were to keep straight forward�察�till you came
to four roads。
MARLOW。 Come to where four roads meet�拭�
TONY。 Ay�察�but you must be sure to take only one of them。
MARLOW。 O�察�sir�察�you're facetious。
TONY。 Then keeping to the right�察 �you are to go sideways till you
come upon Crackskull Common�此�there you must look sharp for the track
of the wheel�察 �and go forward till you come to farmer Murrain's barn。
Coming to the farmer's barn�察�you are to turn to the right�察�and then to the
left�察�and then to the right about again�察�till you find out the old mill
MARLOW。 Zounds�察�man� �we could as soon find out the longitude� �
HASTINGS。 What's to be done�察�Marlow�拭�
MARLOW。 This house promises but a poor reception�察 �though
perhaps the landlord can accommodate us。
LANDLORD。 Alack�察�master�察�we have but one spare bed in the whole
house。
TONY。 And to my knowledge�察 �that's taken up by three lodgers
already。 ��After a pause�察�in which the rest seem disconcerted。�� I have hit
it。 Don't you think�察 �Stingo�察 �our landlady could accommodate the
gentlemen by the fire´side�察�withthree chairs and a bolster�拭�
HASTINGS。 I hate sleeping by the fire´side。
MARLOW。 And I detest your three chairs and a bolster。
TONY。 You do�察�do you�拭�then�察�let me seewhat if you go on a mile
further�察�to the Buck's Head�察�the old Buck's Head on the hill�察�one of the best
inns in the whole county�拭�

HASTINGS。 O ho� �so we have escaped an adventure for this night�察�
however。
LANDLORD。 ��apart to TONY��。
