HASTINGS。 Then�察�my Constance�察�all must be completed before he arrives。 He knows me�察�and should he find me here�察�would discover my name�察�and perhaps my designs�察�to the rest of the family。
MISS NEVILLE。 The jewels�察�I hope�察�are safe��
HASTINGS。 Yes�察�yes�察�I have sent them to Marlow�察�who keeps the keys of our baggage。 In the mean time�察�I'll go to prepare matters for our elopement。 I have had the 'squire's promise of a fresh pair of horses�察�and if I should not see him again�察�will write him further directions。 ��Exit。��
MISS NEVILLE。 Well� �success attend you。 In the mean time I'll go and amuse my aunt with the old pretence of a violent passion for my cousin。 ��Exit。��
Enter MARLOW�察�followed by a Servant。
MARLOW。 I wonder what Hastings could mean by sending me so valuable a thing as a casket to keep for him�察�when he knows the only place I have is the seat of a post´coach at an inn´door。 Have you deposited the casket with the landlady�察�as I ordered you�拭 �Have you put it into her own hands��
SERVANT。 Yes�察�your honour。
MARLOW。 She said she'd keep it safe�察�did she��
SERVANT。 Yes�察�she said she'd keep it safe enough�察�she asked me how I came by it�察�and she said she had a great mind to make me give an account of myself。 ��Exit Servant。��
MARLOW。 Ha� �ha� �ha� �They're safe�察�however。 What an unaccountable set of beings have we got amongst� �This little bar´maid though runs in my head most strangely�察�and drives out the absurdities of all the rest of the family。 She's mine�察�she must be mine�察�or I'm greatly mistaken。
Enter HASTINGS。
HASTINGS。 Bless me� �I quite forgot to tell her that I intended to prepare at the bottom of the garden。 Marlow here�察�and in spirits too��
MARLOW。 Give me joy�察�George� �Crown me�察�shadow me with laurels� �Well�察�George�察�after all�察�we modest fellows don't want for success among the women。
HASTINGS。 Some women�察�you mean。 But what success has your honour's modesty been crowned with now�察�that it grows so insolent upon us��
MARLOW。 Didn't you see the tempting�察�brisk�察�lovely little thing�察�that runs about the house with a bunch of keys to its girdle��
HASTINGS。 Well�察�and what then��
MARLOW。 She's mine�察�you rogue you。 Such fire�察�such motion�察�such eyes�察�such lips�察�but�察�egad� �she would not let me kiss them though。
HASTINGS。 But are you so sure�察�so very sure of her��
MARLOW。 Why�察�man�察�she talked of showing me her work above stairs�察�and I am to improve the pattern。
HASTINGS。 But how can you�察�Charles�察�go about to rob a woman of her honour��
MARLOW。 Pshaw� �pshaw� �We all know the honour of the bar´maid of an inn。 I don't intend to rob her�察�take my word for it�察�there's nothing in this house I shan't honestly pay for。
HASTINGS。 I believe the girl has virtue。
MARLOW。 And if she has�察�I should be the last man in the world that would attempt to corrupt it。
HASTINGS。 You have taken care�察�I hope�察�of the casket I sent you to lock up�拭 �Is it in safety��
MARLOW。 Yes�察�yes。 It's safe enough。 I have taken care of it。 But how could you think the seat of a post´coach at an inn´door a place of safety�拭 �Ah� �numskull� �I have taken better precautions for you than you did for yourselfI have
HASTINGS。 What��
MARLOW。 I have sent it to the landlady to keep for you。
HASTINGS。 To the landlady��
MARLOW。 The landlady。
HASTINGS。 You did��
MARLOW。 I did。 She's to be answerable for its forthcoming�察�you know。
HASTINGS。 Yes�察�she'll bring it forth with a witness。
MARLOW。 Wasn't I right�拭 �I believe you'll allow that I acted prudently upon this occasion。
HASTINGS。 ��Aside。�� He must not see my uneasiness。
MARLOW。 You seem a little disconcerted though�察�methinks。 Sure nothing has happened��
HASTINGS。 No�察�nothing。 Never was in better spirits in all my life。 And so you left it with the landlady�察�who�察�no doubt�察�very readily undertook the charge。
MARLOW。 Rather too readily。 For she not only kept the casket�察�but�察�through her great precaution�察�was going to keep the messenger too。 Ha� �ha� �ha��
HASTINGS。 He� �he� �he� �They're safe�察�however。
MARLOW。 As a guinea in a miser's purse。
HASTINGS。 ��Aside。�� So now all hopes of fortune are at an end�察�and we must set off without it。 ��To him。�� Well�察�Charles�察�I'll leave you to your meditations on the pretty bar´maid�察�and�察�he� �he� �he� �may you be as successful for yourself�察�as you have been for me� 。�Exit。��
MARLOW。 Thank ye�察�George�此�I ask no more。 Ha� �ha� �ha��
Enter HARDCASTLE。
HARDCASTLE。 I no longer know my own house。 It's turned all topsy´turvy。 His servants have got drunk already。 I'll bear it no longer�察�and yet�察�from my respect for his father�察�I'll be calm。 ��To him。�� Mr。 Marlow�察�your servant。 I'm your very humble servant。 ��Bowing low。��
MARLOW。 Sir�察�your humble servant。 ��Aside。�� What's to be the wonder now��
HARDCASTLE。 I believe�察�sir�察�you must be sensible�察�sir�察�that no man alive ought to be more welcome than your father's son�察�sir。 I hope you think so��
MARLOW。 I do from my soul�察�sir。 I don't want much entreaty。 I generally make my father's son welcome wherever he goes。
HARDCASTLE。 I believe you do�察�from my soul�察�sir。 But though I say nothing to your own conduct�察�that of your servants is insufferable。 Their manner of drinking is setting a very bad example in this house�察 �I assure you。
MARLOW。 I protest�察�my very good sir�察�that is no fault of mine。 If they don't drink as they ought�察�they are to blame。 I ordered them not to spare the cellar。 I did�察�I assure you。 ��To the side scene。�� Here�察�let one of my servants come up。 ��To him。�� My positive directions were�察�that as I did not drink myself�察�they should make up for my deficiencies below。
HARDCASTLE。 Then they had your orders for what they do�拭 �I'm satisfied��
MARLOW。 They had�察�I assure you。 You shall hear from one of themselves。
Enter Servant�察�drunk。
MARLOW。 You�察�Jeremy� �Come forward�察�sirrah� �What were my orders�拭 �Were you not told to drink freely�察�and call for what you thought fit�察�for the good of the house��
HARDCASTLE。 ��Aside。�� I begin to lose my patience。
JEREMY。 Please your honour�察�liberty and Fleet´street for ever� �Though I'm but a servant�察�I'm as good as another man。 I'll drink for no man before supper�察�sir�察�damme� �Good liquor will sit upon a good supper�察�but a good supper will not sit uponhiccupon my conscience�察�sir。
MARLOW。 You see�察�my old friend�察�the fellow is as drunk as he can possibly be。 I don't know what you'd have more�察�unless you'd have the poor devil soused in a beer´barrel。
HARDCASTLE。 Zounds� �he'll drive me distracted�察�if I contain myself any longer。 Mr。 MarlowSir�察�I have submitted to your insolence for more than four hours�察�and I see no likelihood of its coming to an end。 I'm now resolved to be master here�察�sir�察�and I desire that you and your drunken pack may leave my house directly。
MARLOW。 Leave your house��Sure you jest�察�my good friend� �What�拭�when I'm doing what I can to please you。
HARDCASTLE。 I tell you�察�sir�察�you don't please me�察�so I desire you'll leave my house。
MARLOW。 Sure you cannot be serious�拭 �At this time o' night�察�and such a night�拭 �You only mean to banter me。
HARDCASTLE。 I tell you�察�sir�察�I'm serious� �and now that my passions are roused�察�I say this house is mine�察�sir�察�this house is mine�察�and I command you to leave it directly。
MARLOW。 Ha� �ha� �ha� �A puddle in a storm。 I shan't stir a step�察�I assure you。 ��In a serious tone。�� This your house�察�fellow� �It's my house。 This is my house。 Mine�察�while I choose to stay。 What right have you to bid me leave this house�察�sir�拭 �I never met with such impudence�察�curse me�察�never in my whole life before。
HARDCASTLE。 Nor I�察�confound me if ever I did。 To come to my house�察�to call for what he likes�察�to turn me out of my own chair�察�to insult the family�察�to order his servants to get drunk�察�and then to tell me�察 �This house is mine�察�sir。; By all that's impudent�察�it makes me laugh。 Ha� �ha� �ha� �Pray�察�sir ��bantering���察�as you take the house�察�what think you of taking the rest of the furniture�拭 �There's a pair of silver candlesticks�察�and there's a fire´screen�察�and here's a pair of brazen´nosed bellows�察�perhaps you may take a fancy to them��
MARLOW。 Bring me your bill�察�sir�察�bring me your bill�察�and let's make no more words about it。
HARDCASTLE。 There are a set of prints�察�too。 What think you of the Rake's Progress�察�for your own apartment��
MARLOW。 Bring me your bill�察�I say�察�and I'll leave you and your infernal house directly。
HARDCASTLE。 Then there's a mahogany table that you may see your own face in。
MARLOW。 My bill�察�I say。
HARDCASTLE。 I had forgot the great chair for your own particular slumbers�察�after a hearty meal。
MARLOW。 Zounds� �bring me my bill�察�I say�察�and let's hear no more on't。
HARDCASTLE。 Young man�察�young man�察�from your father's letter to me�察�I was taught to expect a well´bred modest man as a visitor here�察�but now I find him no better than a coxcomb and a bully�察�but he will be down here presently�察�and shall hear more of it。 ��Exit。��
MARLOW。 How's this�拭 �Sure I have not mistaken the house。 Everything looks like an inn。 The servants cry�察�coming�察�the attendance is awkward�察�the bar´maid�察�too�察�to attend us。 But she's here�察�and will further inform me。 Whither so fast�察�child�拭 �A word with you。
Enter MISS HARDCASTLE。
MISS HARDCASTLE。 Let it be short�察�then。 I'm in a hurry。 ��Aside。�� I believe be begins to find out his mistake。 But it's too soon quite to undeceive him。
MARLOW。 Pray�察�child�察�answer me one question。 What are you�察�and what may your business in this house be��
MISS HARDCASTLE。 A relation of the family�察�sir。
MARLOW。 What�察�a poor relation。
MISS HARDCASTLE。 Yes�察�sir。 A poor relation�察�appointed to keep the keys�察�and to see that the guests want nothing in my power to give them。
MARLOW。 That is�察�you act as the bar´maid of this inn。
MISS HARDCASTLE。 Inn� �O lawwhat brought that in your head�拭 �One of the best families in the country keep an innHa� �ha� �ha� �old Mr。 Hardcastle's house an inn��
MARLOW。 Mr。 Hardcastle's house� �Is this Mr。 Hardcastle's house�察�child��
MISS HARDCASTLE。 Ay�察�sure� �Whose else should it be��
MARLOW。 So then�察�all's out�察�and I have been damnably impos
