Neverout. I never said a rude Thing to a Lady in my Life.
Miss. Here’s a Pin for that Lye; I’m sure Lyars had need of good Memories. Pray, Colonel, was not he very uncivil to me but just now?
Lady Answ. Mr. Neverout, if Miss will be angry for nothing, take my Council, and bid her turn the Buckle of her Girdle behind her.
Neverout. Come, Lady Answerall, I know better Things; Miss and I are good Friends; don’t put Tricks upon Travellers.
Col. Tom, not a Word of the Pudden, I beg you.
Lady Smart. Ah, Colonel! you’ll never be good, nor then neither.
Ld. Sparkish. Which of the Goods d’ye mean? good for something, or good for nothing?
Miss. I have a Blister on my Tongue; yet, I don’t remember, I told a Lye.
Lady Answ. I thought you did just now.
