       [To them] FAINALL and MIRABELL.
       MRS. MARWOOD
       Ha, ha, ha! he comes opportunely for you.
       MRS. FAINALL
       For you, for he has brought Mirabell with him.
       FAINALL
       My dear.
       MRS. FAINALL
       My soul.
       FAINALL
       You don't look well to-day, child.
       MRS. FAINALL
       D'ye think so?
       MIRABELL
       He is the only man that does, madam.
       MRS. FAINALL
       The only man that would tell me so at least, and the only man from whom I could hear it without mortification.
       FAINALL
       Oh, my dear, I am satisfied of your tenderness; I know you cannot resent anything from me; especially what is an effect of my concern.
       MRS. FAINALL
       Mr. Mirabell, my mother interrupted you in a pleasant relation last night: I would fain hear it out.
       MIRABELL
       The persons concerned in that affair have yet a tolerable reputation. I am afraid Mr. Fainall will be censorious.
       MRS. FAINALL
       He has a humour more prevailing than his curiosity, and will willingly dispense with the hearing of one scandalous story, to avoid giving an occasion to make another by being seen to walk with his wife. This way, Mr. Mirabell, and I dare promise you will oblige us both.
