broad staring question of�察�Madam�察�will you marry me�拭                   �No�察�no�察�that's a 

strain much above me�察�I assure you。 

     HASTINGS。         I   pity   you。  But   how   do   you   intend   behaving   to   the 

lady you are come down to visit at the request of your father�拭�

     MARLOW。          As I behave to all other ladies。         Bow very low�察�answer 

yes or no to all her demandsBut for the rest�察�I don't think I shall venture 

to look in her face till I see my father's again。 

     HASTINGS。         I'm surprised that one who is so warm a friend can be 

so cool a lover。 

     MARLOW。          To be explicit�察�my dear Hastings�察�my chief inducement 

down was to be instrumental in forwarding your happiness�察�not my own。 

Miss Neville loves you�察�the family don't know you�察�as my friend you are 

sure of a reception�察�and let honour do the rest。 

     HASTINGS。          My     dear   Marlow�      �But    I'll  suppress    the  emotion。 

Were I a wretch�察�meanly seeking to carry off a fortune�察�you should be the 

last man in the world I would apply to for assistance。              But Miss Neville's 

person   is   all   I   ask�察  �and   that   is   mine�察  �both   from   her   deceased   father's 

consent�察�and her own inclination。 

     MARLOW。          Happy man�        �You have talents and art to captivate any 

woman。       I'm doom'd to adore the sex�察�and yet to converse with the only 

part   of   it   I   despise。 This   stammer   in   my   address�察  �and   this   awkward

prepossessing visage of mine�察�can never permit me to soar above the reach 

of a milliner's 'prentice�察�or one of the duchesses of Drury´lane。             Pshaw� �

this fellow here to interrupt us。 

       Enter HARDCASTLE。 

       HARDCASTLE。          Gentlemen�察�once more you are heartily welcome。 

Which is Mr。 Marlow�拭         �Sir�察�you are heartily welcome。        It's not my way�察�

you see�察�to receive my friends with my back to the fire。            I like give them 

a hearty reception in the old style at my gate。          I like to see their horses 

and trunks taken care of。 

    MARLOW。          ��Aside。��     He    has   got  our  names    from    the  servants 

already。    ��To him。��     We approve your caution and hospitality�察�sir。           ��To 

HASTINGS。��         I have been thinking�察�George�察�of changing our travelling 

dresses in the morning。       I am grown confoundedly ashamed of mine。 

    HARDCASTLE。            I beg�察�Mr。 Marlow�察�you'll use no ceremony in this 

house。 

    HASTINGS。         I fancy�察�Charles�察�you're right�此�the first blow is half the 

battle。   I intend opening the campaign with the white and gold。 

    HARDCASTLE。             Mr。    MarlowMr。      Hastingsgentlemenpray        be 

under no constraint in this house。        This is Liberty´hall�察�gentlemen。        You 

may do just as you please here。 

    MARLOW。          Yet�察�George�察�if we open the campaign too fiercely at first�察�

we    may   want    ammunition     before   it  is  over。  I  think   to  reserve   the 

embroidery to secure a retreat。 

    HARDCASTLE。            Your talking of a retreat�察�Mr。 Marlow�察�puts me in 

mind of the Duke of Marlborough�察�when we went to besiege Denain。                   He 

first summoned the garrison 

    MARLOW。          Don't   you   think   the   ventre   d'or   waistcoat   will   do   with 

the plain brown�拭�

    HARDCASTLE。             He    first  summoned      the  garrison�察  �which    might 

consist of about five thousand men 

    HASTINGS。         I think not�此�brown and yellow mix but very poorly。 

    HARDCASTLE。             I   say�察  �gentlemen�察    �as  I  was    telling  you�察   �be 

summoned the garrison�察�which might consist of about five thousand men

     MARLOW。          The girls like finery。 

     HARDCASTLE。             Which might consist of about five thousand men�察�

well   appointed   with   stores�察  �ammunition�察  �and   other   implements   of   war。 

Now�察�says the Duke of Marlborough to George Brooks�察�that stood next to 

himyou must have heard of George BrooksI'll pawn my dukedom�察�says 

he�察�but I take that garrison without spilling a drop of blood。            So 

     MARLOW。          What�察�my good friend�察�if you gave us a glass of punch in 

the mean time�察�it would help us to carry on the siege with vigour。 

     HARDCASTLE。              Punch�察     �sir�    。�Aside。��       This     is   the   most 

unaccountable kind of modesty I ever met with。 

     MARLOW。          Yes�察   �sir�察 �punch。   A   glass    of  warm    punch�察   �after  our 

journey�察�will be comfortable。         This is Liberty´hall�察�you know。 

     HARDCASTLE。            Here's a cup�察�sir。 

     MARLOW。          ��Aside。��     So   this   fellow�察  �in   his   Liberty´hall�察  �will   only 

let us have just what he pleases。 

     HARDCASTLE。            ��Taking   the   cup。��    I   hope   you'll   find   it   to  your 

mind。     I have prepared it with my own hands�察�and I believe you'll own 

the ingredients are tolerable。        Will you be so good as to pledge me�察�sir�拭�

Here�察�Mr。 Marlow�察�here is to our better acquaintance。              ��Drinks。�А�

     MARLOW。           ��Aside。��     A    very   impudent     fellow   this�   �but  he's   a 

character�察�and I'll humour him a little。        Sir�察�my service to you。       ��Drinks。�А�

     HASTINGS。          ��Aside。��      I  see   this  fellow    wants    to  give   us  his 

company�察�and forgets that he's an innkeeper�察�before he has learned to be a 

gentleman。 

     MARLOW。          From     the   excellence    of  your    cup�察 �my    old  friend�察  �I 

suppose   you   have   a   good   deal   of   business   in   this   part   of   the   country。 

Warm work�察�now and then�察�at elections�察�I suppose。 

     HARDCASTLE。            No�察�sir�察�I have long given that work over。             Since 

our betters have hit upon the expedient of electing each other�察�there is no 

business ;for us that sell ale。; 

     HASTINGS。         So�察�then�察�you have no turn for politics�察�I find。 

     HARDCASTLE。            Not     in  the  least。  There     was   a  time�察  �indeed�察  �I 

fretted   myself   about   the   mistakes   of   government�察  �like   other   people�察  �but 

finding myself every day grow more angry�察�and the government growing

no better�察�I left it to mend itself。      Since that�察�I no more trouble my head 

about Hyder Ally�察�or Ally Cawn�察�than about Ally Croker。               Sir�察�my service 

to you。 

    HASTINGS。          So   that   with   eating   above   stairs�察  �and   drinking   below�察�

with receiving your friends within�察�and amusing them without�察�you lead a 

good pleasant bustling life of it。 

    HARDCASTLE。            I do stir about a great deal�察�that's certain。      Half the 

differences of the parish are adjusted in this very parlour。 

    MARLOW。          ��After   drinking。��    And   you   have   an   argument   in   your 

cup�察�old gentleman�察�better than any in Westminster´hall。 

    HARDCASTLE。            Ay�察�young gentleman�察�that�察�and a little philosophy。 

    MARLOW。          ��Aside。��     Well�察�this is the first time I ever heard of an 

innkeeper's philosophy。 

    HASTINGS。          So then�察�like an experienced general�察�you attack them 

on every quarter。      If you find their reason manageable�察�you attack it with 

your   philosophy�察  �if   you   find they  have  no   reason�察  �you   attack   them  with 

this。   Here's your health�察�my philosopher。          ��Drinks。�А�

    HARDCASTLE。             Good�察     �very   good�察  �thank    you�察  �ha�   �ha�   �Your
