Eter. O the Savages! Mar. But there is a further Charge against this Lady; She is said to be a common Nusance at the Theatres; and that She frequently Sets the whole House in a Titter to the Confusion of the Actors, & the general disturbance of the Audience, by constantly exposing her Nudities to Publick View, contrary to the Ideas of female Modesty, and the Laws of Decency. Miss Dy. O fye Seignior, how can you make use of so indelicate an Expression. A Lady's Nudities, why, you might as well have said-- I vow it is almost plain English, I protest such an Expression is enough to get your Farce hiss'd off the Stage-- Pas. I am extremely Sorry the Phrase offends your Ladyship, but if you will Substitute any other. Dia. I think Mr. Drawcansir when those Objects are to be expos'd that-- a Lady's Proturberances, her Snow balls, or her Lover's Amusements-- wou'd be much more delicate.
