3 S THE W E S T I N D I A N: LADY RUSPORT^ Do, Lucy. Alas! Sir, ever fince I loft my hufband, my poor nerves have been fhook to pieces : there hangs his beloved picture j that precious relick, and a plentiful jointure, is all that remains to confole me for the beft of men. O'FLAHERTY. Let me fee ; i'faith a comely perfonage : by his fur cloak I fuppofe he was in the Ruffian fervice ; and by the gold chain round his neck, 1 flaould guefs he had been honoured with the order of St. Catharine. LADY... RUSPORT No, no ; he meddled with no St. Catharines : that's the habit he wore in his mayoralty ; Sir Siephen was Lord-Mayor of London : but he is gone, and has left me a poor, weak, folitary widow behind him, O'FLAHERTY. By all means, then, take a ftrong, able, hearty man to repair his Ipfs : if fuch a plain fellow as one Dennis O'Flaherty can pleafe you, I think I may venture to fay, without any difparagement to the gentleman in the fur- gown there LADY RUSPORT. What are you going to fay f Don't ihock my ears with any companions, I defire.
