Стр. 37 - I'll warrant she'll prove an excuse for the glass. Here's to the charmer whose dimples we prize; Now to the maid who has none, sir : Here's to the girl with a pair of blue eyes, And here's to the nymph with but one, sir.
Стр. 32 - And you shall no longer reproach me with not giving you an independent settlement. I mean shortly to surprise you : — but shall we always live thus, hey!
Стр. 23 - Yes, egad, they are tenacious of reputation with a vengeance ; for they don't choose anybody should have a character but themselves ! — Such a crew !

Стр. 59 - I was a witness to it, has penetrated so to my heart, that had I left the place without the shame of this discovery, my future life should have spoken the sincerity of my gratitude. As for that smooth-tongued hypocrite, who would have seduced the wife of his too credulous friend, while he affected honourable addresses to his ward — I behold him now in a light so truly despicable, that I shall never again respect myself for having listened to him.
Стр. 33 - There now! you — you are going on. You don't perceive, my life, that you are just doing the very thing which you know always makes me angry.
Стр. 72 - Why, as to reforming, sir Peter, I'll make no promises, and that I take to be a proof that I intend to set about it. But here shall be my monitor — my gentle guide — ah ! can I leave the virtuous path those eyes illumine ? Though thou, dear maid, shouldst waive thy beauty's sway, Thou still must rule, because I will obey : An humble fugitive from folly view, No sanctuary near but love and you ; [To the audience.

Стр. 22 - Yes, yes, madam, you were then in somewhat a humbler style : — the daughter of a plain country squire.
