Blush, if you can, Sir! and repent of this! It will become you. If not,
Sir, you will hear farther from your Servant, added he, and left him
staring after him. This Discourse was a great Mortification to the
Knight, whose Conscience, harden'd as it was, felt yet some Pain by it.
He found he was not like to continue safe or at Ease there, where he
immediately retreated into a Place of Sanctuary, call'd the _Savoy_,
whither his whole Equipage was remov'd as soon as possible, he having
left Order with his Servants, to report that he went out of Town that
very Afternoon for his own Country. _Gracelove_ in the mean Time
return'd to the Counsellor's, with a great deal of Joy, for having
discover'd Sir _William_ at his Lodgings, which was likewise no little
Satisfaction to _Fairlaw_, his Lady and Daughter; _Philadelphia_ only
was disturb'd when she heard the good old Gentleman threaten to lay her
Brother fast enough: But, alas! he was too cunning for 'em; for in a
whole Twelvemonth after, all which Time they made Enquiry, and narrowly
search'd for him, they could not see him, nor any one that could give an
Account of him, for he had chang'd his true Name and Title, for that of
'Squire _Sportman_. The farther Pursuit of him then seem'd fruitless to
'em, and they were forc'd to be contented with their Wishes to find him.

_Gracelove_ by this Time had entertain'd the sincerest Affections and
noblest Passion that Man can be capable of, for _Philadelphia_; of which
he had made her sensible, who had at that Time comply'd with his
honourable Demands, had she not entreated him to expect a kind Turn of
Providence, which might, (happily) e're long, put her in Possession of
her Right; without which, she told him, she could not consent to marry
him, who had so plentiful a Fortune, and she nothing but her Person and
Innocence. How, Madam! (cry'd he) have you no Love in Store for me! Yes,
Sir, (return'd she) as much as you can wish I have in Store for you, and
so I beg it may be kept 'till a better Opportunity. Well, Madam,
(said he) I must leave you for some Months, perhaps for a whole Year;
I have receiv'd Letters of Advice that urge the Necessity of my going to
_Turkey_; I have not a Week's Time to endeavour so dreaded a Separation
as I must suffer; therefore, thou beautiful, thou dear, thou virtuous
Creature, let me begin now! Here, thou tenderest Part of my Soul!
