You wait, and see us haul him by the ears,
And swim the blatherer in Huff's farm-yard pond.
As HUFF and SHALE go out, they see the comet before them.
Huff:
The devil's own star is that!
Shale:
And floats as calm
As a pike basking.
Huff:
There shouldn't be such stars!
Shale:
Neither such dowsers, and we'll learn him that.
