Aside his client, till he'd praised his cook;
Nor to an office led him, there in pain
To give his story and go out again,
But first the brandy and the chine were seen.
And then the business came by starts between.

But have you money to redress these wrongs?

Nay, look not sad, my friend; if you're correct,
You'll find the friendship that you'd not expect."
