128
Q

F to regard me of any quality of mind…

A

…or understanding, were only to esteem me

129
Q

F I have often wished myself deformed…

A

146
Q

M men have no sense…

A

…now but for the worthless flower of beauty!

147

A

…deceptions from flattery and pretended admiration, an impudent coxcomb!

155
Q

Jack I, just in the nick, will have…

157
Q

M I’ll make her behave…

A

158
Q

Jack one would think now that I might throw off all disguise at once….

A

188
Q

Acres what, shall I disgrace…

A

…my ancestors?

189
Q

Acres David think what it would…

A

…be to disgrace my ancestors!

190
Q

David the surest way of not disgracing them is to…

A

…keep as long as you can out of their company

191
Q
