I say it was weak-minded of me, for I knew no more of her than the outside; but it was the wisest stroke I could have hit upon. I will never betray the secrets of my sex, Mr. Davie; I will never tell you the way she turned me round her thumb, because it is the same she will use to twist yourself. Ay, it is a fine lass!
