very pretty boy. O' my troth, I looked upon him o'
Wednesday half an hour together: has such a
confirmed countenance. I saw him run after a gilded
butterfly: and when he caught it, he let it go

comes, and again; catched it again; or whether his

teeth and tear it; O, I warrant it, how he mammocked
it!
