PROLOGUE, SPOKEN BY MR
25/217

Nor any Mr.or Squire in the alphabet-- _1st Footman_.

That lives in Chris-cross Row.
_Mr.H_.Go, for a couple of ungrateful, inquisitive, senseless rascals! Go; hang, starve, or drown!--Rogues, to speak thus irreverently of the alphabet--I shall live to see you glad to serve old Q--to curl the wig of great S--adjust the dot of little i--stand behind the chair of X, Y, Z--wear the livery of Etcaetera--and ride behind the sulky of And-by-itself-and! [_Exit in a rage_.
ACT II.
SCENE .-- _A handsome Apartment well lighted, Tea, Cards, &c .-- A large party of Ladies and Gentlemen; among them MELESINDA._ _1st Lady_.

I wonder when the charming man will be here.
_2d Lady_.

He is a delightful creature.

Such a polish-- _3d Lady_.
