But mark the
end of it!'--I could have wished--'Pr'ythee, Jackey, mind this,'--we--
'mind the significant we,'--had not engaged to the good neighbourhood, at
Sir Simon's, for to-morrow night.--'Why, does the good neighbourhood, and
does Sir Simon, permit thy visits, child? They shall have none of mine,
then, I'll assure them!'--But I am so desirous to set out on Wednesday
for the other house--'So, Jackey, but we just nicked it, I find:'--that,
as well as in return for the civilities of so many good friends, who will
be there on purpose, I would not put it off.--'Now mind, Jackey.'--What I
beg of you--'Mind the wretch, that could use me and your uncle as he has
done; he is turned beggar to this creature!'--I beg of you, therefore, my
dear--'My dear! there's for you!--I wish I may not be quite sick before I
get through.'--What I beg of you, therefore, my dear, [and then she
looked me full in the face,] is, that you will go in the chariot to Sir
Simon's, the sooner in the day the better;--'Dear heart! and why so, when
WE were not expected till night? Why, pray observe the reason--Hem!'
[said she]--Because you will be diverted with the company;--'Mighty kind,
indeed!'--who all--'Jackey, Jackey, mind this,'--who all so much admire
you.
