You have been a great traveller in your day.

You've been round the world a'most, haven't you ?' "'Well,' sais I, 'I sharn't say I hante.' "'What a deal of information a man of your observation must have acquired.' (He is a gentlemanly man, that you may depend.

I don't know when I've see'd one so well mannered.) "'Not so much, Sir, as you would suppose,' sais I.
"'Why how so ?' sais he.

That's one of your best.

I like your works for that they are original.
