Cope. No we’ve got you in a line, and that’s quite enough. (Aside) You bought him too cheap, to have rope with him, Sir; but here’s a hay-band, that will do perhaps.
Green. An ay-band—oh, ah; an ay-band will do very well,—do you think I can get him as far as Tooley Street, vith this?
Cope. Oh, yes, Sir, he’s as quiet as a lamb, and a famous hunter.
Green. An unter! I’ve taken ’em all in; I’ve bought an unter!
Cope. Ah, and nothing but a good one neither—such a one to clear a gate.
Green. Vot? clear a gate! vy, then, I sha’n’t have to pay no turnpikes!—How pleased they’ll be in Tooley Street, when I tell’s my pa I’ve bought an unter!
Gul. We’ll get something more out of him yet. (Aside to Cope). So you think you have bought that ’ere horse, do you Mister?—Now, I say, I’ve bought him. (To Green)
Green. You bought him? that’s a good un! but I’m not to be taken in in this here manner!—if you bought him, I paid for him, that’s all I know.
Gul. I say I bought him, and the horse is mine.
Green. I say as how you are a wery unpurlite gentleman.
