Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from John Bull: Or the Englishman´s Fireside, a Comedy in Five Acts Dan. Why, a waddling woman, wi´ a mulberry feace. Dennis. Have done with your blarney, Mr. Dan. Think of the high blood in her veins, you bog-trotter! Dan. Ees; I always do, when I do look at her nose. Dennis. Never you mind Mrs. Brulgruddery´s nose. Wasn´t she fat widow to Mr. Skinnygauge, the lean exciseman of Lestweithel? And didn´t her uncle, who is fifteenth cousin to a Cornish Baronet, say he´d leave her no money, if he ever happen´d to have any, because she had disgraced her parentage, by marrying herself to a taxman? Bathershan, man, and don´t you think he´ll help us out of the mud, now her second husband is an Irish jontleman, bred and born. Dan. He, he! Thee best a rum gentleman. Dennis. Troth, and myself, Mr. Dennis Brulgruddery, was brought up to the church. Dan. Why, zure! Dennis. You may fay that. I open´d the pew-doors, in Belfast. Dan. And what made ´Em to turn thee out o´the treade? Dennis. I snored in sermon-time. Dr. Snuffle-bags, the preacher, said I woke the rest of the congregation. Arrah, Dan, don´t I see a tall customer stretching out his arms in the fog? Dan. Na; that be the road-post. Dennis. Faith, and so it is, Och! when I was turn´d out of my snug birth in Belfast, the tears ran down my eighteen-year-old cheeks, like buttermilk. Dan. Pshaw, man! nonsense! Thee´dst never get another livelihood by crying. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
