From The Politician Out-Witted by Samuel Low

male · sarcastic · 1:00 min

Friend me none of your friends; I don't want such everlasting friends as you, d'ye see, becase why, if you never make a beginning with your friendship, I'm sure it can't be everlasting; and if you've got a mind to shew your friendliness, I'm sure you cou'dn't have a more fitter time than now. (WORTHNOUGHT: What wou'd the addity have me say, I wonder.) I wou'dn't have you say anything,--you talk too much already, for the matter o' that; I like for to see people do things, not talk 'em. (WORTHNOUGHT: There --is that what you want?) Aye, I thought you understood me well enough.--Your friendship wants as much spurring and kicking and coaxing as our lazy old gelding at home;--I wou'dn't trust such a friend as far as I cou'd fling a cow by the tail.
