Excerpt: ...I'm in the right. MISS HARDCASTLE. And depend on't I'm not much in the wrong. Exeunt. Enter Tony, running in with a casket. TONY. Ecod! I have got them. Here they are. My cousin Con's necklaces, bobs and all. My mother shan't cheat the poor souls out of their fortin neither. O! my genus, is that you? Enter HASTINGS. HASTINGS. My dear friend, how have you managed with your mother? I hope you have amused her with pretending love for your cousin, and that you are willing to be reconciled at last?
