ched sighs, she closed her eyes in the sweet death, in
the instant of which we could easily see the signs in the quiet, dying,
languid posture of her late so furious driver, who was stopped of a
sudden, breathing short, panting, and, for that time, giving up the
spirit of pleasure. As soon as he was dismounted, Louisa sprung up,
shook her petticoats, and running up to me, gave me a kiss, and drew me
to the side-board, to which she was herself handed by her gallant, where
they made me pledge them in a glass of wine, and toast a droll health of
