Jerry. I'll peep into every tent, bribe the sogers—I've got a little money left. [Jasper and Peasants retire. Corporal crosses the stage.] Hist, corporal!
Corporal. Well, what would you?
Jerry. Why no, sure—it isn't—yes, it is—why Corporal Flash, how do you do? Don't you know me?
Corporal. Can't say I do, sir.
Jerry. Why, not know Jerry Mayflower? Don't you remember me at the battle of Queenstown, when you were in the boat and I on land, and you were crossing to fight Johnny Bull, and I didn't cross at all?
Corporal. Oh, I remember you now—I remember calling you a cowardly rascal at the time.
Jerry. So you did—how have you been? I am very glad to see you—you're not killed, I take it?
Corporal. No, not exactly killed—but I was wounded—an honour which you didn't seem to care much about.
Jerry. No, not much; I'm not very ambitious that way.
Corporal. What brings you to the camp, just when we are about having another brush with the enemy—do you want to run away again? Zounds! you deserve a round hundred at the halberts.
