age and good looks, but not possest of half my
master's impidince. Not that that quallaty is uncommon in France;
but few, very few, had it to such a degree as my exlent employer, Mr.
Deuceace. Besides De L'Orge was reglarly and reely in love with Lady
Griffin, and master only pretending: he had, of coars, an advantitch,
which the poor Frentchman never could git. He was all smiles and gaty,
while Delorge was ockward and melumcolly. My master had said twenty
pretty things to Lady Griffin, befor the shevalier had finished
smoothing his hat, staring at her, and sighing fit to bust his weskit.
O luv, luv! THIS isn't the way to win a woman, or my name's not Fitzroy
Yellowplush! Myself, when I begun my carear among the fair six, I
was always sighing and moping, like this poar Frenchman. What was the
consquints? The foar fust women I adoared lafft at me, and left me for
something more lively. With the rest I have edopted a diffrent game,
and with tolerable suxess, I can tell you. But this is eggatism, which I
aboar.

Well, the long and the short of it is, that Munseer Ferdinand Hyppolite
Xavier Stanislas, Shevalier de L'Orge, was reglar cut out by Munseer
Algernon Percy Deuceace, Exquire. Poar Ferdinand did not leave the
house--he hadn't the heart to do that--nor had my lady the desire
to dismiss him. He was usefle in a thousand different ways, gitting
oppra-boxes, and invitations to French swarries, bying gloves, and O de
Colong, writing French noats, and such like. Always let me recommend
an English famly, going to Paris, to have at least one young man of the
sort about them. Never mind how old your ladyship is, he will make love
to you; never mind what errints you send him upon, he'll trot off and do
them. Besides, he's always quite and well-dresst, and never drinx moar
than a pint of wine at dinner, which (as I say) is a pint to consider.
Such a conveniants of a man was Munseer de L'Orge--the greatest use
and comfort to my lady posbill; if it was but to laff at his bad
pronunciatium of English, it was somethink amusink; the fun was to pit
him against poar Miss Kicksey, she speakin French, and he our naytif
British tong.

My master, to do him justace, was perfickly sivvle to this poar young
Frenchman; and having kicked him out of the place which he occupied,
sertingly treated his fallen anymy with every respect and consideration.
Poar modist, down-hearted little Ferdinand adoured my lady as a goddice!
and so he was very p
