A taylor of fashion knows' his man better knows how to put a coat on your back philoso phically, to suit the laws of motion, eh, Jervis? Hark! Surely the bailiffs are coming up stairs. My dear fellow, step and tell them that I have taken my leave - that \i am gone off in a balloon, shot myself with a finder-box, hang'd myself in the bell-rope; drown'd myself in the wash hand bason - any congé you think the neatest, so that you do but get them out of the house.
