By God I thank you for that news. What, ist in the pool, can
you tell?
UNCLE.
It is; what of that?
FLOWERDALE.
What? why then I have six pieces of velvet sent me; I'll give
you a piece, Uncle: for thus said the letter,--a piece of
Ashcolour, a three piled black, a colour de roi, a crimson, a
sad green, and a purple: yes, yfaith.
UNCLE.
From whom should you receive this?
FLOWERDALE.
From who? why, from my father; with commendations to you,
Uncle, and thus he writes: I know, said he, thou hast much
troubled thy kind Uncle, whom God-willing at my return I
will see amply satisfied. Amply, I remember was the very word,
so God help me.
UNCLE.
Have you the letter here?
FLOWERDALE.
Yes, I have the letter here, here is the letter: no, yes, no;--let me
see, what breeches wore I a Saturday? let me see: a Tuesday my
Salamanca; a Wednesday my peach colour Satin; a Thursday my
Vellour; a Friday my Salamanca again; a Saturday--let me see--a
Saturday,--for in those breeches I wore a Saturday is the letter: O,
my riding breeches, Uncle, those that you thought been velvet; in
those very breeches is the letter.
UNCLE.
When should it be dated?
FLOWERDALE.
