I hear she said, or swore, that she will marry the young widow, Lady Isabel, to an Irish nobleman. 'Whatever she says, she swears, and whatever she swears, she'll do, replied Bowles.
I have not yet finished what I have to say. Allow me to ask if Mrs. Grundy resides in this village." "Mrs. Grundy! Oh, I understand.
