By the de'il, 'tis the first time I've e'er gone with a girrl! You can believe me. Mass, I hadn't thought it would be like this! (LULU: Are you married?) Heaven and Hail, why do you think I am married?--No, I'm a tutor; I read philosophy at the University. The truth is, I come of a very old country family. As a student, I got just two shillings pocket-money, and I could make better use of that than for girrls! (LULU: So you have never been with a woman?) Just so, yes! But I want it now. I got engaged this evening to a country-woman of mine. She's a governess here.
