Lovelace? Dearest Madam, replied I, you know my motives: to prevent mischief, I answered his letters. The reasons for our apprehensions of this sort are not over.
A petition, similar to that which had been entrusted to Lovelace, was brought into the House of Commons, but was contemptuously rejected. Maynard was foremost in protesting against the attempt of the rabble in the streets to overawe the Estates of the Realm. William sent for Lovelace, expostulated with him strongly, and ordered the magistrates to act with vigour against all unlawful assemblies.
You you see, I'm in duty bound to take my mother out of London in winter." "Just so!" agreed Lovelace, who had watched him narrowly while he spoke. "Don't grudge the old lady her southern sunshine. Errington! Lorimer wants brushing up a bit too he looks seedy.
And the rather, as, in doing so, you will have my opinion in justification of your aversion to him, and in approbation of a steadiness that I ever admired, and must for ever approve of, in your temper. 'I was twice in this wretch's company. At one of the times your Lovelace was there. 'Lovelace entertained the company in his lively gay way, and made every body laugh at one of his stories.
Externally shutting myself up from you! repeated I I hope, Sir, that I expect to be uninvaded in my retirements. He seemed a little disconcerted. You know, Mr. Lovelace, proceeded I, why I am so earnest for your absence. It is, that I may appear to the world independent of you; and in hopes, by that means, to find it less difficult to set on foot a reconciliation with my friends.
Talking of lady-killers, I beheld amid the throng at Mademoiselle Cicogna's the ci-devant Lovelace whom I remember some twenty-three years ago as the darling of wives and the terror of husbands-Victor de Mauleon." "Victor de Mauleon at Mademoiselle Cicogna's! what, is that man restored to society?"
He was going to be the match-winning factor; and, so far as seniority goes, there is not much to choose between men who get their colours on the same day. "Of course he won't if you don't," Mansell said, "but I think he's worth it. I say, let's have a feed to-night. There's just time before hall to order some stuff. Lovelace, rush off to the tuck-shop, and put it down to my account."

"Wasn't there some sort of wonderful clock at Venice?"
Sol O my dear, how I hate the man in the light he is proposed to me! All of them, at the same time, are afraid of Mr. Lovelace; yet not afraid to provoke him! How am I entangled! to be obliged to go on corresponding with him for their sakes Heaven forbid, that their persisted-in violence should so drive me, as to make it necessary for my own! But surely they will yield Indeed I cannot.
