Now to the Charles to watch the fellows row.

SCENE III. Papanti's Hall. The Assembly. Dancing going on. MRS. MARRYWELL and daughter seated aside.

MRS. M. Now, Maud, remember, if young Sharp should ask

To waltz with you, be charming as you can.

Talk pretty nonsense, do not be too shy;

None but the brave deserve a millionnaire.

SHARP approaches. MRS. MARRYWELL turns away to give free scope.

SHARP. Pray will you dance?

MAUD. Thank you, I'd rather talk

A little ere we mingle in the waltz.

Sir, have you seen the latest "Deutsche Rundschau"?

There is an essay on "Infinity" -

SHARP. No, I'm a perfect dunce at languages,

And scarcely know the word for "love" in French.
