"I hope I am still of some use to Mr. Waverton." "Damme, you might be the old family retainer. 'Faithful service of the antique world, egad. I suppose you will end your days with Geoffrey, and be buried at his feet like a trusty hound." "If you please, sir." They looked at each other. "Well, Mr. Boyce, I beg your pardon," Hadley said. "But you'll allow you are irritating to a plain man."
Nine pounds' worth would never do it, I'm so infernally healthy and strong! Nine accursed, miserable pounds what use to a drinker such as I?" "Many, Anthony, and I think I can guess one of the first " "And that?" "To procure yourself a shave!" "Egad!" cried he with a sudden, merry look, "I believe you're in the right of it!
I lost a thousand guineas t'other night at basset; I wish to my heart I could have been vexed about it. Egad! I remember the day when to lose a hundred made me half mad for a month. Well, next day I had my revenge at dice, and threw thirteen mains. There was some delay; a call for fresh bones, I think; and would you believe it? I fell asleep with the box in my hand!"
"You have worked your way in vastly well, egad, with your Whig committee meetings and speeches. And now he is on his back, and you have possession, you choose to cut me off. 'Slife, I know what will be coming next!" I pulled him into Mr. Swain's private room, where we would be free of the clerks. "Yes, I am master here," I replied, sadly enough, as he stood sullenly before me.
"He did not saving the tongue of him. But I had broke my whip upon him, so I broke his nose to be even. Egad, he was beautiful before and behind. He cannot show this long while. Neither behind nor before, faith. What will he do, d'ye think?" "Oh Lud, he'll not face it out. He would dream of hangmen. He'll take the waters. He'll go the grand tour.
And as for that intriguing little puppy, her father, you have pulled his teeth, egad. She heard what you said to him, you tell me. Then he will never deceive her again, my word on't. And Chartersea may come back to London, and be damned." Three days after that I was at sea, in the Norfolk packet, with the farewells of my loyal English friends ringing in my ears.
"Egad, I sometimes think, shallow as the sex is, no man fully knows that. However, we will waste no further parley on the matter. Put the money in your purse, man, for your future needs, and think naught about the debt to me." "Nay, Clowes. Since the money is here, 't is as well to pay up."
The sharp face opposite stared at him in contemptuous disgust. "Your name?" "La, you now!" Harry laughed. "I don't know you neither. And, egad, I can do without." "I am the Earl of Sunderland." "Then, damme, I am sorry for you." "Your name, I say?" "Why, didn't your fellows tell you? They told me." "Impudence will not serve you. I warn you, the one chance to save yourself is to be honest with me."
"I shall have done in one minute," he remarked, "It is a fine production, egad! full of noble protestations and really high-sounding words. And then, my dear Sophia, you can take charge of it, and I shall be quite ready for the other, which I presume you have as usual with you ah, in your bag! Thanks."
"I quite agree with you, Lucian; but some good has come out of this evil, for if things had not been as they are, you and I would never have met." "Egad! that is true!" said Lucian, kissing her. "It's an ill wind that blows nobody any good." So Diana played the part of a Good Samaritan towards her stepmother, and helped her to bear the evil of being thrust into prison.
