_L. Ha._ Incomparably done! Nothing can equal it, except your cousin sang his own poetry. _Cam._ Madam, from my Lord Hardy. [_Delivers a letter to_ LADY SHARLOT.]--How do you say, my Lady Harriot, except I sing it myself? Then I assure you I will---- _L. Sh._ I han't patience. I must go read my letter. [_Exit._ _Cam._ [_Sings_] Let not love, &c. _Far._ Bless me, what's become of Lady Sharlot? [_Exit._ _L. Ha._ Mrs. Fardingale, Mrs. Fardingale, what, must we lose you? [_Going after her._ CAMPLEY _runs to the door, takes the key out, and locks her in._ What means this insolence? a plot upon me--Do you know who I am? _Cam._ Yes, madam, you're my Lady Harriot Lovely, with ten thousand pounds in your pocket; and I am Mr. Campley, with two thousand a year, of quality enough to pretend to you. And I do design, before I leave this room, to hear you talk like a reasonable woman, as nature has made you. Nay, 'tis in vain to flounce, and discompose yourself and your dress. _L. Ha._ If there are swords, if they are men of honour, and not all dastards, cowards that pretend to this injured person----[_Running round the room._ _Cam._ Ay, ay, madam, let 'em come. That's putting me in my way, fighting's my trade; but you've used all mankind too ill to expect so much service. In short, madam, were you a fool I should not desire to expostulate with you. [_Seizing her hand._] But---- _L. Ha._ Unhand me, ravisher. [_Pulls her hand from him, chases round the room,_ CAMPLEY _after her._ _Cam._ But madam, madam, madam, why madam! Prithee Cynthia look behind you, [_Sings._ Age and wrinkles will o'ertake you. _L. Ha._ Age, wrinkles, small-pox, nay, anything that's most abhorrent to youth and bloom, were welcome in the place of so detested a creature. _Cam._ No such matter, Lady Harriot. I would not be a vain coxcomb, but I know I am not detestable, nay, know where you've said as much before you understood me for your servant. Was I immediately transformed because I became your lover? _L. Ha._ My lover, sir! did I ever give you reason to think I admitted you as such?
