(101)
I have a little hope in one place. If I succeed I will pay it to-day. If not, Sir, you must rectify the matter by breaking me to pieces, or beating me to dust.
That can't be; borrow something here on the spot, and pay it.
Do you, Sir, procure a merchant. I will bring the money, together with the exorbitant interest, in ten days.
Where shall I go to procure a merchant? Bring it from wherever you can get it.
If I had had so much credit, Sir, I would have brought it now.
Fellow, you are a highwayman. If I am not very severe, you won't pay.
You are sovereign. I am included in whatever you do. I am not a thief because I cultivate the ground.
Continuation.
Who else is here? put this fellow in custody, and get the money.
I am your tenant, Sir. If you abuse and drive me away, people will not settle on your estate.
You make a piece of work about paying at every payment. It would be a good thing if such tenants would not stay.
Very well, Sir. I will do so after this crop. Nobody can stay after they see your ill looks.
Go, you fellow. If I have land, I shall have plenty of tenants.
Continuation.
I shall see how many people you will settle on the land and house which you have let to me.
Was there never any body in that farm before?
