Fancy his having to pay half his income in pensions to chaps who could have had him out of his town or country mansion and popped into gaol in a jiffy. And found out at last! Them tales set you thinking. Once I was an idle young scaramouch. But you can buy every idea that's useful to you for a penny. I tried the halfpenny journals. Cheapness ain't always profitable.
If we be, I have taken order against a Discovery. Ela. I tremble, but know not whether 'tis with Fear or Joy. Enter Cinthio. Cin. Ha, shun my Arms, Elaria! Ela. Heavens! Why did you come so soon? Cin. Is it too soon, whene'er 'tis safe, Elaria? Ela. I die with Fear Met you not Scaramouch? He went to bid you wait a while; what shall I do? Cin. Why this Concern? none of the House has seen me.
Many customers of that unremunerative order had the widow. When the ragged little ones happened to be about the age of Franky they were sure of bouncing weight, and of getting their money returned. She smiled upon the scaramouch now, who was watched from the door by half a dozen confederates. The ha'penny was common property apparently, for each was presently clamouring for his share.
Besides, it is as vulgar as Rats-bane, or the slicing of the Weasand. No, I'll die a Death uncommon, and leave behind me an eternal Fame. I have somewhere read an Author, either antient or modern, of a Man that laugh'd to death. I am very ticklish, and am resolv'd to die that Death. And now, farewel the World, fond Love, and mortal Cares. Enter Scaramouch. Scar. Ha, what's here? Har.
The whole party accordingly disembarked, and were presently giving an exhibition of their talents to the assembled idlers, the Pantaloon, Harlequin and Doctor enacting a comical intermezzo which Cantapresto had that morning composed for them, while Scaramouch and Columbine joined the dancers, and the rest of the company, seizing on a train of donkeys laden with vegetables for the Venetian market, stripped these patient animals of their panniers, and mounting them bareback started a Corso around the village square amid the invectives of the drivers and the applause of the crowd.
His business was to deal in Spanish rhodomontades, to kick out the native Italian Capitan, in compliment to the Spaniards, and then to take a quiet caning from Harlequin, in compliment to themselves. When the Spaniards lost their influence in Italy, the Spanish Captain was turned into Scaramouch, who still wore the Spanish dress, and was perpetually in a panic.
Hum, the Doctor here first, this is not so well, but I'm prepar'd with Impudence for all Encounters. Enter the Doctor. Scaramouch salutes him gravely. Doct. Scar.
Madam, your Cousin Florinda, with a Lady, are come to visit you. Bell. I'm glad on't, 'tis a good Wench, and we'll trust her with our Mirth and Secret. SCENE II. Changes to the Street. Scaramouch follows Cinthio in a Campaign Coat. Scar. Well, what's the Quarrel? How fell ye out? Cin. You may inform your self I believe, for these close Intrigues cannot be carried on without your Knowledge. Scar.
"And that scaramouch of a schooner that the Frenchman gave us, in his charity?" "The Pretty Poll! She got home safe, was sold, and is now in the West-India trade. There is a handsome balance, amounting to some fourteen hundred dollars, in the owners' hands, coming to you from prize-money and wages." It is not in nature, for any man to be sorry he has money.
The men of the Gulf, in general of gigantic stature, dropped their merry Venetian stories and fell down on their knees and kissed the hem of her garment; the Scaramouch forgot his tricks, and wept as he would to the Madonna; Tuscany and Rome made speeches worthy of the Arno and the Forum; and the Corsicans and the islanders unsheathed their poniards and brandished them in the air, which is their mode of denoting affectionate devotion.
