"Kiss my pretty wife and commend her to the compassion of her friends."
"You will never have a wife, sir. God in His infinite mercy, will spare all my sex from such a fearful calamity."
"Enough words for this time. To-morrow I will bring the witnesses of Hadley's death, as I promised you; and this day week I will receive your final answer to my last offer of a peaceable marriage."
