have eat nothing Let 's say g●ace Fifteenth Dialogue To Speak French DO you speak French Are you very Learned in the French Tongue Not much I know nothing almost 'T is said however that you speak very well I would it were true I should know what I do not It will be true if you please and I shall teach you the way to learn French quickly You shall do me a very great favour The easiest Method to Learn French is to speak it often But to speak a body must know something You know enough already I know but four or five words which I have got by heart That 's enough to begin to speak Were it so I should become a great Scholar in a little time Don't you understand what I say to you I both understand it and apprehend it very well But I have not a fluent expression I can hardly speak The facility of speaking will come in time I am too hasty Tell me a little how do you call that I believe it is called Very well and this Do I pronounce well Pretty well Indifferent You want but a little Practice How long is it since you learn 'T is not above eight days It is not a Month since What is your Master of Languages's name His name is Master How many times does he come to teach you He comes three times a week How much do you give him a month I give him so much Does he come three days one after another No he comes every other day To wit On Mundays Wenesday and Frydays In the forenoon or in the afternoon In the forenoon Where does he live In Grafton-street At whose house He lodges at a Taylor 's at the sign of the Blue-ball Does he not tell you that you should always speak French Yes Sir he tells me so often Why don't you speak then Who will you have me speak with With those as shall speak to you I 'd fain speak but I dare not Believe me be confident and speak without minding whether you say right or no. If I speak so every body will laugh at me Don't you know that so learn to speak well a body begins by speaking ill I shall then follow your advice Sixteenth Dialogue Of News WHat news is there abroad Do you know any news I have heard no news What do they say abroad There is no talk of any thing Did you hear any thing of the War I heard nothing of it There is a talk of a Siege They said so but that report has proved false On the contrary they talk of a battel I have it of good hands Do you believe we shall have a Peace I believe yes For my part I believe not What grounds have you for 't Because I see the minds of both Partys are little inclin'd that way Mean while it cannot be deny'd but that Peace would be a great advantage to Trade What do they say at Court They talk of a journey When is it believed the King will go It is not known They say nothing of it Where do they say he will go Some say into Flanders others upon the Fleet. And what says the Gazette I have not read it And to speak freely with you the designs of the Court are kept so secret that I think News-mongers know nothing of them The Commanders themselves whom the King chuses to execute his designs do not know what the preparations that are a making in the Tower and in the Sea-ports are intended for After all this can a body speak p●ssitively of our affairs Men of sence never speak of those matters but with great wariness and discretion For my part I cannot excuse the foolishness of some people who talk of Government without being acquainted with it They make peace and war according to their freaks or interests and take upon themselves to settle the Nation when at the same time they leave their Families in a ruinous disorder Let us speak of private news It is true what is reported of Master What of him They say he is wounded to death I would be sorry for 't he is an honest man Who has given him the wound Two Knaves Two Villains that set upon him Do they know upon what account 'T is reported because he spok● ill of them and gave a box in the ear to one of them I don't believe it Nor I neither Whatever it be 't will be quickly known Seventeenth Dialogue To enquire after one WHO is that Gentleman who spoke to you just now He is an Englishman I took him to be a German He speaks very good French Tho' he be an Englishman he speaks so well French Italian German and Spanish that among the French they believe him to be a French-man He speaks Italian as the Italians themselves He goes for a German with the Germans and for a Spaniard among the Spaniards 'T is a hard matter to be Master of so many different Languages He has been a long while in those Countrys Is it long since you know him 'T is about two years since I know him I got acquainted with him at Paris He is very genteel He has a fine Presence He is of a fine proper size He is neither too tall nor too little He is handsom and his shape is easy and sree He has a noble gate He has nothing unpleasant in his ways He is civil courteous and complaisant with every body He has a great deal of Wit and is very jovial and agreeable in Conversation He Rides the great Horse very well He is quick and handy to Fence and Dances very neatly or handsomly He plays on the lute the guittar and several other instruments But what renders him the more commendable is that he has found the way to get the Prince's favour who often bestows favours upon him And who without question will not fail to prefer him I should be glad to get acquainted with him I shall get you acquainted with him Do you know where he lives He lives hard by When shall you and I go and wait on him When you please for he is my intimate Friend 'T will be when you can spare time When it is convenient for you At your leisure Eighteenth Dialogue Between a Tutor and Two Young Gentlemen GEntlemen good morro● to you Sir I wish it to you Have you been up a long while It is about an hour since Have you well slept last night Have you had a good nights rest My little brother has slept very well For my part I spent part of the night in sleeping the other in slumbering and the other in waking Have you breakfasted Yes Sir Have you askt your Papa's your Mama's and Grand-Mama's blessing Papa went out before we got up Mama is not awake But we have been at Grand-Mama's Bring your Books What Books must I bring What day of the Week is it To day is Tuesday Bring then the Latin Grammar and the Familiar Phrases And for my Brother The history
