Sir Chas. Is Mr. Sullen's family abed, think 'ee?
Bon. All but the squire himself, sir, as the saying is; he's in the house.
Sir Chas. What company has he? [10]
Bon. Why, sir, there 's the constable, Mr. Gage the exciseman, the hunch-backed barber, and two or three other gentlemen.
Sir Chas. I find my sister's letters gave me the true picture of her spouse. [Aside.
Bon. Sir, here's the squire.
Squire Sul. The puppies left me asleep—Sir!
Sir Chas. Well, sir.
Squire Sul. Sir, I am an unfortunate man—I have three thousand pounds a year, and I can't get a man to drink a cup of ale with me. [21]
