It was ostensibly about china, that commodity then being the rage of the town. Lady Fidget desires some from a dear male acquaintance ‘for he knows china very well, and has himself very good, but will not let me see it lest I should beg some’. The gentleman’s name is Horner, whose welcome for Lady Fidget alarms her husband. Sir Jaspar: Wife! My Lady Fidget! He is coming into you the back way! Lady Fidget: Let him come, and welcome, which way he will. Sir Jaspar: He’ll catch you, and use you rou...ghly, and be too strong for you. Lady Fidget: Don’t you trouble yourself, let him if he can. Horner, having been detained in his chamber with Lady Fidget, is asked a few minutes later if he has any china left. Horner: Upon my honour I have none left now. Mrs Squeamish: Nay, nay, I have known you deny your china before now, but you shan’t put me off so. Come. Horner: This lady had the last there. Lady Fidget: Yes indeed, madam, to my certain knowledge he has no more left. Mrs Squeamish: Oh, but it may be he may have some you could not find.
