Enter COUNSELLOR FLEFFEL.
Counsellor. Good day to you, fair ladies; your most obedient servant.
Mrs. D. You honour us with your company sooner than we expected.
Counsellor. I was impatient, absolutely beside myself, upon my honour, till fashion allowed me to fly hither; I am always so happy in your charming company!
PHILIP BROOK entering.
Philip. Good morning to you, Madam [bows to Augusta.] Pray, is Mr. Drave at home? [To the Counsellor] Good morning, Sir.
Mrs. D. No, Sir, he is just gone out. [They converse together. The Counsellor talks to Augusta].
Counsellor. Miss Drave, we will have some sport.
Augusta. How so?
