Miss Nev. I dislike them of all things. You shan't stir.—Was ever anything so provoking? to mislay my own jewels, and force me to wear her trumpery.
Tony. Don't be a fool. If she gives you the garnets, take what you can get. The jewels are your own already. I have stolen them out of her bureau, and she does not know it. Fly to your spark, he'll tell you more of the matter. Leave me to manage her.
Miss Nev. My dear cousin!
Tony. Vanish. She's here, and has missed them already. Zounds! how she fidgets, and spits about like a Catherine-wheel!
Enter Mrs. Hardcastle.
Mrs. Hard. Confusion! thieves! robbers! We are cheated, plundered, broke open, undone.
Tony. What's the matter, what's the matter, mamma? I hope nothing has happened to any of the good family!
Mrs. Hard. We are robbed. My bureau has been broke open, the jewels taken out, and I'm undone.
Tony. Oh! is that all? Ha! ha! ha! By the laws, I never saw it better acted in my life. Ecod, I thought you was ruined in earnest; ha, ha, ha!
