SCENE V.--_Chamber._

_Enter CUTAWAY, R._

CUT. Truly unfortunate and disagreeable!--my fair one torn from me in a

manner most unfair. Miss Harriet missing--all is gone but hope!--and

what does hope say? Something false, as usual? The lady loves the

marvellous.--No, hope reminds me that Harriet is sent to Mrs.

Chargely's, in this neighbourhood; and that if I could enter in a

feigned name--true, I can learn at the door if the old lion be in the

den--if the young dove be in her cage!--'gad, it will do!--What name can

I take?--I have it, Mr. Cotton has a foreman named Bolt--I'll call

myself Bolt; I dare say I'm like him; I never saw him; so don't know

the contrary. A happy exchange of names--The part of Bolt by Mr.

Cutaway.
