Master Sideboard, a good Morning to you. (Sideboard: Good Morning, Roger. Why you're not chang'd in your Travels abroad Roger.) No, Heav'n be prais'd, they cou'd not change me. Is the Squire stirring yet? (Sideboard: Yes, and that chattering Frenchman is with him. Pray, who is he?) O that's Mounsieur Abbé--the Squire has brought un home with un to write Remarks, as I overheard un say, upon all our Country Folk. He has learned English on purpose, and jabbers from Morning to Night. Lord! When he was abroad, a used to dress quite and clean in another manner, a was all over black with a silk thing flowing behind, with a spruce Wig, and a black Patch on the Crown of his head, as if a was one of your Sergeants at Law as one may see upon circuit; but dear Heart, the Squire will be in a sad frame presently when I tell un what news I got for un.
