'Twas he Gave heat unto the injury, which returned, Like a petard ill lighted, into the bosom Of him gave fire to't.

Yet I hope his hurt Is not so dangerous but he may recover Fair Maid of the Inn.
The prisoner was now presented before the two worshipful magistrates.
Glossin, partly from some compunctious visitings, and partly out of his cautious resolution to suffer Sir Robert Hazlewood to be the ostensible manager of the whole examination, looked down upon the table, and busied himself with reading and arranging the papers respecting the business, only now and then throwing in a skilful catchword as prompter, when he saw the principal, and apparently most active, magistrate stand in need of a hint.

As for Sir Robert Hazlewood, he assumed on his part a happy mixture of the austerity of the justice combined with the display of personal dignity appertaining to the baronet of ancient family.
'There, constables, let him stand there at the bottom of the table.

Be so good as look me in the face, sir, and raise your voice as you answer the questions which I am going to put to you.' 'May I beg, in the first place, to know, sir, who it is that takes the trouble to interrogate me ?' said the prisoner; 'for the honest gentlemen who have brought me here have not been pleased to furnish any information upon that point.' 'And pray, sir,' answered Sir Robert, 'what has my name and quality to do with the questions I am about to ask you ?' 'Nothing, perhaps, sir,' replied Bertram; 'but it may considerably influence my disposition to answer them.' 'Why, then, sir, you will please to be informed that you are in presence of Sir Robert Hazlewood of Hazlewood, and another justice of peace for this county--that's all.' As this intimation produced a less stunning effect upon the prisoner than he had anticipated, Sir Robert proceeded in his investigation with an increasing dislike to the object of it.
'Is your name Vanbeest Brown, sir ?' 'It is,' answered the prisoner.
'So far well; and how are we to design you farther, sir ?' demanded the Justice.
'Captain in his Majesty's---regiment of horse,' answered Bertram.
The Baronet's ears received this intimation with astonishment; but he was refreshed in courage by an incredulous look from Glossin, and by hearing him gently utter a sort of interjectional whistle, in a note of surprise and contempt.

'I believe, my friend,' said Sir Robert, 'we shall find for you, before we part, a more humble title.' 'If you do, sir,' replied his prisoner, 'I shall willingly submit to any punishment which such an imposture shall be thought to deserve.' 'Well, sir, we shall see,' continued Sir Robert.
