LIEUTENANT O’CONNOR.
My dear doctor, now remember to bring the justice presently to the walk: I have a scheme to get into his confidence at once.
DR. ROSY.
I will, I will. [They shake hands.]
Re-enter JUSTICE CREDULOUS.
JUSTICE CREDULOUS.
Why, honest Humphrey, hey! what the devil are you at?
DR. ROSY.
I was just giving him a little advice.—Well I must go for the present.—Good-morning to your worship—you need not fear the lieutenant while he is in your house.
JUSTICE CREDULOUS.
Well, get in, Humphrey. Good-morning to you, doctor.— [Exit DOCTOR ROSY.] Come along, Humphrey.—Now I think I am a match for the lieutenant and all his gang. [Exeunt.]
