, Hypocrite, Saucebox, Boldface, get out of my Sight, or I will lend you such a Kick in the ---- I don't care to repeat the Word, but he meant my hinder part. I was offering to go away, for I was half afraid, when he called me back, and took me round the Neck and kissed me, and then bid me go about my Business. I went directly into my Room, where Mrs. _Jewkes_ came to me soon afterwards. So Madam, says she, you have left my Master below in a fine Pet, he hath threshed two or three of his Men already: It is might pretty that all his Servants are to be punished for your Impertinence. Harkee, Madam, says I, don't you affront me, for if you do, d--n me (I am sure I have repented for using such a Word) if I am not revenged. _How sweet is Revenge: Sure the Sermon Book is in the Right, in calling it the sweetest Morsel the Devil ever dropped into the Mouth of a Sinner._ Mrs. _Jewkes_ remembered the Smart of my Nails too well to go farther, and so we sat down and talked about my Vartue till Dinner-time, and then I was sent for to wait on my Master.

Then he took me into his Lap.--O Mamma, I could tell you something if I would--and he kissed me----and I said I won't be slobber'd about so, so I won't; and he bid me get out of the Room for a saucy Baggage, and said he had a good mind to spit in my Face. _Sure no Man over took such a Method to gain a Woman's Heart._ I had not been long in my Chamber before Mrs. _Jewkes_ came to me, and told me, my Master would not see me any more that Evening, that is, if he can help it; for, added she, I easily perceive the great Ascendant you have over him, and to confess the Truth, I don't doubt but you will shortly be my Mistress.
