Yes; those were they. What of it?

The Wife:

Did he eat?

The Showman:

Yes; bread and cheese; he would not touch the meat

The Wife:

But see, the cheese is whole, the loaf unbroken,
And both are fresh. And see, another token: Those
hard green apples that the farmer gave
Have grown to these gold globes, like Blenheims brave;
And look, how came these plums of Pershore here?

The Showman:

We have been sitting with a saint, my dear.

The Wife.
