me�察�I assure you。
HASTINGS。 I pity you。 But how do you intend behaving to the lady you are come down to visit at the request of your father��
MARLOW。 As I behave to all other ladies。 Bow very low�察�answer yes or no to all her demandsBut for the rest�察�I don't think I shall venture to look in her face till I see my father's again。
HASTINGS。 I'm surprised that one who is so warm a friend can be so cool a lover。
MARLOW。 To be explicit�察�my dear Hastings�察�my chief inducement down was to be instrumental in forwarding your happiness�察�not my own。 Miss Neville loves you�察�the family don't know you�察�as my friend you are sure of a reception�察�and let honour do the rest。
HASTINGS。 My dear Marlow� �But I'll suppress the emotion。 Were I a wretch�察�meanly seeking to carry off a fortune�察�you should be the last man in the world I would apply to for assistance。 But Miss Neville's person is all I ask�察�and that is mine�察�both from her deceased father's consent�察�and her own inclination。
MARLOW。 Happy man� �You have talents and art to captivate any woman。 I'm doom'd to adore the sex�察�and yet to converse with the only part of it I despise。 This stammer in my address�察�and this awkward prepossessing visage of mine�察�can never permit me to soar above the reach of a milliner's 'prentice�察�or one of the duchesses of Drury´lane。 Pshaw� �this fellow here to interrupt us。
Enter HARDCASTLE。
HARDCASTLE。 Gentlemen�察�once more you are heartily welcome。 Which is Mr。 Marlow�拭 �Sir�察�you are heartily welcome。 It's not my way�察�you see�察�to receive my friends with my back to the fire。 I like give them a hearty reception in the old style at my gate。 I like to see their horses and trunks taken care of。
MARLOW。 ��Aside。�� He has got our names from the servants already。 ��To him。�� We approve your caution and hospitality�察�sir。 ��To HASTINGS。�� I have been thinking�察�George�察�of changing our travelling dresses in the morning。 I am grown confoundedly ashamed of mine。
HARDCASTLE。 I beg�察�Mr。 Marlow�察�you'll use no ceremony in this house。
HASTINGS。 I fancy�察�Charles�察�you're right�此�the first blow is half the battle。 I intend opening the campaign with the white and gold。
HARDCASTLE。 Mr。 MarlowMr。 Hastingsgentlemenpray be under no constraint in this house。 This is Liberty´hall�察�gentlemen。 You may do just as you please here。
MARLOW。 Yet�察�George�察�if we open the campaign too fiercely at first�察�we may want ammunition before it is over。 I think to reserve the embroidery to secure a retreat。
HARDCASTLE。 Your talking of a retreat�察�Mr。 Marlow�察�puts me in mind of the Duke of Marlborough�察�when we went to besiege Denain。 He first summoned the garrison
MARLOW。 Don't you think the ventre d'or waistcoat will do with the plain brown��
HARDCASTLE。 He first summoned the garrison�察�which might consist of about five thousand men
HASTINGS。 I think not�此�brown and yellow mix but very poorly。
HARDCASTLE。 I say�察�gentlemen�察�as I was telling you�察�be summoned the garrison�察�which might consist of about five thousand men
MARLOW。 The girls like finery。
HARDCASTLE。 Which might consist of about five thousand men�察�well appointed with stores�察�ammunition�察�and other implements of war。 Now�察�says the Duke of Marlborough to George Brooks�察�that stood next to himyou must have heard of George BrooksI'll pawn my dukedom�察�says he�察�but I take that garrison without spilling a drop of blood。 So
MARLOW。 What�察�my good friend�察�if you gave us a glass of punch in the mean time�察�it would help us to carry on the siege with vigour。
HARDCASTLE。 Punch�察�sir� 。�Aside。�� This is the most unaccountable kind of modesty I ever met with。
MARLOW。 Yes�察�sir�察�punch。 A glass of warm punch�察�after our journey�察�will be comfortable。 This is Liberty´hall�察�you know。
HARDCASTLE。 Here's a cup�察�sir。
MARLOW。 ��Aside。�� So this fellow�察�in his Liberty´hall�察�will only let us have just what he pleases。
HARDCASTLE。 ��Taking the cup。�� I hope you'll find it to your mind。 I have prepared it with my own hands�察�and I believe you'll own the ingredients are tolerable。 Will you be so good as to pledge me�察�sir�拭 �Here�察�Mr。 Marlow�察�here is to our better acquaintance。 ��Drinks。��
MARLOW。 ��Aside。�� A very impudent fellow this� �but he's a character�察�and I'll humour him a little。 Sir�察�my service to you。 ��Drinks。��
HASTINGS。 ��Aside。�� I see this fellow wants to give us his company�察�and forgets that he's an innkeeper�察�before he has learned to be a gentleman。
MARLOW。 From the excellence of your cup�察�my old friend�察�I suppose you have a good deal of business in this part of the country。 Warm work�察�now and then�察�at elections�察�I suppose。
HARDCASTLE。 No�察�sir�察�I have long given that work over。 Since our betters have hit upon the expedient of electing each other�察�there is no business ;for us that sell ale。;
HASTINGS。 So�察�then�察�you have no turn for politics�察�I find。
HARDCASTLE。 Not in the least。 There was a time�察�indeed�察�I fretted myself about the mistakes of government�察�like other people�察�but finding myself every day grow more angry�察�and the government growing no better�察�I left it to mend itself。 Since that�察�I no more trouble my head about Hyder Ally�察�or Ally Cawn�察�than about Ally Croker。 Sir�察�my service to you。
HASTINGS。 So that with eating above stairs�察�and drinking below�察�with receiving your friends within�察�and amusing them without�察�you lead a good pleasant bustling life of it。
HARDCASTLE。 I do stir about a great deal�察�that's certain。 Half the differences of the parish are adjusted in this very parlour。
MARLOW。 ��After drinking。�� And you have an argument in your cup�察�old gentleman�察�better than any in Westminster´hall。
HARDCASTLE。 Ay�察�young gentleman�察�that�察�and a little philosophy。
MARLOW。 ��Aside。�� Well�察�this is the first time I ever heard of an innkeeper's philosophy。
HASTINGS。 So then�察�like an experienced general�察�you attack them on every quarter。 If you find their reason manageable�察�you attack it with your philosophy�察�if you find they have no reason�察�you attack them with this。 Here's your health�察�my philosopher。 ��Drinks。��
HARDCASTLE。 Good�察�very good�察�thank you�察�ha� �ha� �Your generalship puts me in mind of Prince Eugene�察�when he fought the Turks at the battle of Belgrade。 You shall hear。
MARLOW。 Instead of the battle of Belgrade�察�I believe it's almost time to talk about supper。 What has your philosophy got in the house for supper��
HARDCASTLE。 For supper�察�sir� 。�Aside。�� Was ever such a request to a man in his own house��
MARLOW。 Yes�察�sir�察�supper�察�sir�察�I begin to feel an appetite。 I shall make devilish work to´night in the larder�察�I promise you。
HARDCASTLE。 ��Aside。�� Such a brazen dog sure never my eyes beheld。 ��To him。�� Why�察�really�察�sir�察�as for supper I can't well tell。 My Dorothy and the cook´maid settle these things between them。 I leave these kind of things entirely to them。
MARLOW。 You do�察�do you��
HARDCASTLE。 Entirely。 By the bye�察�I believe they are in actual consultation upon what's for supper this moment in the kitchen。
MARLOW。 Then I beg they'll admit me as one of their privy council。 It's a way I have got。 When I travel�察�I always chose to regulate my own supper。 Let the cook be called。 No offence I hope�察�sir。
HARDCASTLE。 O no�察�sir�察�none in the least�察�yet I don't know how�察�our Bridget�察�the cook´maid�察�is not very communicative upon these occasions。 Should we send for her�察�she might scold us all out of the house。
HASTINGS。 Let's see your list of the larder then。 I ask it as a favour。 I always match my appetite to my bill of fare。
MARLOW。 ��To HARDCASTLE�察�who looks at them with surprise。�� Sir�察�he's very right�察�and it's my way too。
HARDCASTLE。 Sir�察�you have a right to command here。 Here�察�Roger�察�bring us the bill of fare for to´night's supper�此�I believe it's drawn outYour manner�察�Mr。 Hastings�察�puts me in mind of my uncle�察�Colonel Wallop。 It was a saying of his�察�that no man was sure of his supper till he had eaten it。
HASTINGS。 ��Aside。�� All upon the high rope� �His uncle a colonel� �we shall soon hear of his mother being a justice of the peace。 But let's hear the bill of fare。
MARLOW。 ��Perusing。�� What's here�拭 �For the first course�察�for the second course�察�for the dessert。 The devil�察�sir�察�do you think we have brought down a whole Joiners' Company�察�or the corporation of Bedford�察�to eat up such a supper�拭 �Two or three little things�察�clean and comfortable�察�will do。
HASTINGS。 But let's hear it。
MARLOW。 ��Reading。�� For the first course�察�at the top�察�a pig and prune sauce。
HASTINGS。 Damn your pig�察�I say。
MARLOW。 And damn your prune sauce�察�say I。
HARDCASTLE。 And yet�察�gentlemen�察�to men that are hungry�察�pig with prune sauce is very good eating。
MARLOW。 At the bottom�察�a calf's tongue and brains。
HASTINGS。 Let your brains be knocked out�察�my good sir�察�I don't like them。
MARLOW。 Or you may clap them on a plate by themselves。 I do。
HARDCASTLE。 ��Aside。�� Their impudence confounds me。 ��To them。�� Gentlemen�察�you are my guests�察�make what alterations you please。 Is there anything else you wish to retrench or alter�察�gentlemen��
MARLOW。 Item�察�a pork pie�察�a boiled rabbit and sausages�察�a Florentine�察�a shaking pudding�察�and a dish of tifftafftaffety cream。
HASTINGS。 Confound your made dishes�察�I shall be as much at a loss in this house as at a green and yellow dinner at the French ambassador's table。 I'm for plain eating。
HARDCASTLE。 I'm sorry�察�gentlemen�察�that I have nothing you like�察�but if there be anything you have a particular fancy to
MARLOW。 Why�察�really�察�sir�察�your bill of fare is so exquisite�察�that any one part of it is full as good as another。 Send us what you please。 So much for supper。 And now to see that our beds are aired�察�and properly taken care of。
HARDCASTLE。 I entreat you'll leave that to me。 You shall not stir a step。
MARLOW。 Leave that to you� �I protest�察�sir�察�you must excuse me�察�I always look to these things myself。
HARDCASTLE。 I must insist�察�sir�察�you'll make yourself easy on that head。
MARLOW。 You see I'm resolved on it。 ��Aside。�� A very troublesome fellow this�察�as I ever met with。
HARDCASTLE。 Well�察�sir�察�I'm resolved at least to attend you。 ��Aside。�� This may be modem modesty�察�but I nev
