Miss , miss , your father has taken his hat , and is slept out , and Mr. Davenport is on the stairs ; and I came to tell you — O , miss , your father has suddenly returned . I see him with Mr. Saunders , coming down the street . Mr. Saunders , ma'am ! Aye , miss , you must go , as Mr. Davenport says . Here is your cloak , miss , and your hat , and your gloves . Your father , ma'am — Away — away . What a lucky thought of mine to say her father was coming ! he would never have got her off , else . Lord , Lord , I do love to help lovers . This is the house I saw a bill up at , ma'am ; and a droll creature the landlord is . I am mistaken if my young lady does not find an agreeable companion in these apartments . Almost a namesake . Only the difference of Flyn , and Flint . I have some errands to do , or I would stop and have some fun with this droll butcher . Cutlet returns . You may thank me for your new lodger , Mr . Cutlet .— But bless me , you do not look well ? Late hours , perhaps . Raking last night . The deuce it did ! and what , if I may be so bold , might be the subject of your Night Thoughts ? What , in the midst of summer ? What a canting rogue it is ! I should like to trump up some fine story to plague him . He has got this by rote , out of some book . I have it .— For that matter , you need not send your humanity a travelling , Mr. Cutlet . For instance , last night — Only two streets off — The butcher 's shop at the corner . He has found his ears at last .That he has had his house burnt down . I saw four small children taken in at the green grocer 's . Some say he is , but not to the full amount . Now is this pretender to humanity gone to avail himself of a neighbour 's supposed ruin to inveigle his customers from him . Fine feelings !— pshaw !
