Mrs. Sul. Truly, spouse, I was pretty near it—had not these two gentlemen interposed.
Sul. How came these gentlemen here?
Mrs. Sul. That's his way of returning thanks, you must know.
Foig. Ay, but upon my conshience, de question be apropos, for all dat.
Sir C. You promised, last night, sir, that you would deliver your lady to me this morning.
Sul. Humph!
Arch. Humph! what do you mean by humph?—Sir, you shall deliver her——In short, sir, we have saved you and your family, and if you are not civil, we'll unbind the rogues, join with them, and set fire to your house.—What does the man mean? Not part with his wife!
Foig. Arra, not part wid your wife! Upon my shoul, de man dosh not understand common shivility.
Mrs. Sul. Hold, gentlemen, all things here must move by consent: compulsion would spoil us. Let my dear and I talk the matter over, and you shall judge it between us.
