I came, an't like your Seigniorship, to Madam the Governante here, to serve her in the Quality of a Fille de Chambre to the young Ladies. Doct. A Fille de Chambre! 'tis so, a she Pimp. Har. Doct. How now, what, do you mock me? Har. Mop. Stay, stay, Mistress; and what Service are you able to do the Seignior's Daughters? Har. Is this Seignior Doctor Baliardo, Madam? Mop. Yes. Har.
I would have bestowed a flagon of Auvernat upon you to wash away every unkindness -but 't is like you scorn my courtesy. Well. Be as churlish as you list I never quarrel with my customers my jerry come tumbles, my merry dancers, my little playfellows, as Jacques Butcher says to his lambs those in fine, who, like your seigniorship, have H. E. M. P. written on their foreheads.
While the Ancient Brother is reading to the attentive comer, now happy in the thought that he has taken himself in out of the draft, let us survey the sanctum sanctorum; but first let us advance to the centre of the hall, where we find a piece of dirty oil cloth the size of a door mat, and stepping upon this, with body erect and turning our back upon the Ancient Brother, we find ourselves facing the Grand Seignior, who, on our first introduction, is Judge Morris; we salute, which we do by applying the palm of our right hand to the lips, then turning the hand to his seigniorship and bringing our left hand across the breast, which salutation being returned by the Grand Seignior, who sits upon a raised platform and wields a gavel, we take seats wherever our sense of cleanliness will permit, and where we hope there may be no traveling minute messengers conveying ideas from one man's head to another.
