"Zounds! my pretty one, we think differently on that score," said Wilkins, throwing his arms about her slender waist.

FIRST YAGER. Then the lesson is wofully thrown away, How he hawks and spits, indeed, I may say You've copied and caught in the cleverest way; But his spirit, his genius oh, these I ween, On your guard parade are but seldom seen.

Zounds! There are folks at sea that is certain. My friends, get through the storm as best you can. I have enough to do to get through life. Come now, do I keep an inn, or do I not?
