AT LORD'S.
"Yes, I'm so fond of Cricket;" i.e., "How can I find out if Oxford or Cambridge is in?"
"Don't move, pray;" i.e., "If she doesn't, I shall be smothered in lobster-salad!"
"Not the least in my way, thanks;" i.e., "Does she think I can see through her parasol?"
"Pray join us at lunch! Heaps of room in the carriage;" i.e., "Hope she doesn't! It only holds four, and we're six already."
"Don't they call a hit to the left like that, a Drive?" i.e., "Young-rich—good-looking—worth catching—looks as if he liked 'sweet simplicity.'"
