Lady Smart. Who’s there? you’re on the wrong Side of the Door; come in, if you be fat.
[——Colonel comes in again.——
Ld. Sparkish. Why, Colonel, you are a Man of great Business.
Col. Ay, ay, my Lord, I’m like my Lord Mayor’s Fool; full of Business, and nothing to do.
Lady Smart. My Lord, don’t you think the Colonel mightily fall’n away of late?
Ld. Sparkish. Ay; fall’n from a Horse-load to a Cart-load.
Col. Why, my Lord, egad I am like a Rabbit, fat and lean in Four-and-twenty Hours.
Lady Smart. I assure you, the Colonel walks as strait as a Pin.
Miss. Yes; he’s a handsome-body’d Man in the Face.
