You have been livingupon rye-bread and soup-maigre, and now you come over like a walkingatomy with a rat's tail at your wig, and a tinsey jacket. And so, forsooth, you set up for a gentleman, and pretend to find fault with asirloin of roast beef. " The gentleman heard this address with admirable patience, and when shehad rung out her alarm, very coolly replied, "Anything but your stinkingfish madam. Since when, I pray, have you travelled in stage-coaches, andleft off your old profession of cryi...ng oysters in winter, and rottenmackerel in June? You was then known by the name of Kate Brawn, and ingood repute among the ale-houses in Thames Street, till that unluckyamour with the master of a corn-vessel, in which he was unfortunatelydetected by his own spouse; but you seem to have risen by that fall; andI wish you joy of your present plight. Though, considering youreducation on Bear Quay, you can give but a sorry account of yourself. " The Amazon, though neither exhausted nor dismayed, was really confoundedat the temper and assurance of this antagonist, who had gathered allthese anecdotes from the fertility of his own invention; after a shortpause, however, she poured forth a torrent of obloquy sufficient tooverwhelm any person who had not been used to take up arms against suchseas of trouble; and a dispute ensued, which would have not onlydisgraced the best orators on the Thames, but even have made a figure inthe celebration of the Eleusinian mysteries, during which the Athenianmatrons rallied one another from different waggons, with that freedom ofaltercation so happily preserved in this our age and country.
