~   ~   ~   Sentence 96   ~   ~   ~

And ye Macs, and ye Donalds upon Donalds, go on, and may our gallows-hills and liberty poles be honour'd and adorn'd with some of your heads: Why should Tyburn and Temple-bar make a monopoly of so valuable a commodity?_ _Wishing you abundance of entertainment in the re-acting this Tragi-Comedy, and of which I should be proud to take a part with you, tho' I have reason to think you would not of choice let me come within three hundred yards of your stage, lest I should rob you of your laurels, receive the clap of the whole house, and pass for a second Garrick among you, as you know I always act with applause, speak bold--point blank--off hand--and without prompter._ _I am_, My Lords and Gentlemen Buffoons, _Your always ready humble servant,_ DICK RIFLE.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 292   ~   ~   ~

Damn him, I never intend to do either--See again how he bows--there again--how the mob throw up their hats, split their throats; how they huzza too; they make a mere god of the fellow; how they idolize him--Ignorant brutes!

~   ~   ~   Sentence 580   ~   ~   ~

Damn such protectors, such cut-throat villains; protect us?

~   ~   ~   Sentence 751   ~   ~   ~

[_Aside._] How damn'd afraid he is.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 801   ~   ~   ~

Surprising indeed, Dick, nor do I in the least doubt it; and why not, as well as Balaam's ass, speak?

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,010   ~   ~   ~

Damn my eyes, Mr. Boatswain, but here's a black flag of truce coming on board.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,018   ~   ~   ~

We shall be all of a colour by and by--damn me-- BOATSWAIN.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,030   ~   ~   ~

Damn your squeamish stomach, go directly, or I'll go myself.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,034   ~   ~   ~

Damn your eyes, you pimping son of a bitch, go this instant, or I'll stick my knife in your gammons.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,039   ~   ~   ~

What the devil--keep a pimp guard here, better station the son of a bitch at the mast head, to keep a look out there, lest Admiral Hopkins be upon us.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,053   ~   ~   ~

With submission to your honour, d' ye see, [_Scratching his head._] I think we have gallows-looking dogs enough on board already--the scrapings of Newgate, and the refuse of Tyburn, and when the wind blows aft, damn 'em, they stink like polecats--but d' ye see, as your honour pleases, with submission, if it's Lord Paramount's orders, why it must be so, I suppose--but I've done my duty, d' ye see-- KIDNAPPER.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,057   ~   ~   ~

especially as they're to have their freedoms for it; nobody can blame 'em, nor your honour neither, for you get them for half price, or nothing at all, d' ye see me, and that will help to lessen poor Owld England's taxes, and when you have done with 'em here, and they get their brains knock'd out, d' ye see, your honour can sell them in the West-Indies, and that will be something in your honour's pocket, d' ye see--well, ev'ry man to his trade--but, damn my impudence for all, I see your honour knows all about it--d' ye see.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,064   ~   ~   ~

Damn my eyes, but I suppose, messmate, we must bundle out of our hammocks this cold weather, to make room for these black regulars to stow in, tumble upon deck, and choose a soft berth among the snow?

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,068   ~   ~   ~

Come, come, brothers, don't be angry, I suppose we shall soon be in a warmer latitude--the Kidnapper seems as fond of these black regulars (as you call 'em, Jack) as he is of the brace of whores below; but as they come in so damn'd slow, I'll put him in the humour of sending part of the fleet this winter to the coast of Guinea, and beat up for volunteers, there he'll get recruits enough for a hogshead or two of New-England rum, and a few owld pipe-shanks, and save poor Owld-England the trouble and expense of clothing them in the bargain.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,078   ~   ~   ~

Damn your old smoky jaws, you're better off than any man aboard, your trouble will be nothing,--for I suppose they'll be disbursted in different messes among the Tories, and it's only putting on the big pot, cockey.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,083   ~   ~   ~

Blast my eyes, Mr. Boatswain, if I disgrease myself so much, I have had the honour, damn me (tho' I say it that shou'dn't say it) to be chief cook of a seventy-four gun ship, on board of which was Lord Abel-Marl and Admiral Poke-Cock.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,085   ~   ~   ~

Damn the liars--old singe-the-devil--you chief cook of a seventy-four gun ship, eigh?

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,086   ~   ~   ~

you the devil, you're as proud as hell, for all you look as old as Matheg'lum, hand a pair of silk stockings for our cook here, d' ye see--lash a handspike athwart his arse, get a ladle full of slush and a handful of brimstone for his hair, and step one of you Tories there for the devil's barber to come and shave and dress him.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,094   ~   ~   ~

throw up the pot-halliards, you mean, old piss-to-windward?

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,140   ~   ~   ~

[_Aside._] What a damn'd big mouth that Cudjo has--as large as our main hatch-way---- COOK.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,148   ~   ~   ~

Aye, he'd tumble plenty down his damn'd guts and swallow it, like Jones swallow'd the whale.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,158   ~   ~   ~

That's a brave fellow--damn 'em--down with them all--shoot all the damn'd rebels.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,171   ~   ~   ~

Damn 'em, I'd rather see half their weight in beef.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,173   ~   ~   ~

Aye, curse their stomachs, or mutton either; then our Cook wou'dn't be so damn'd lazy as he is, strutting about the deck like a nobleman, receiving Paramount's pay for nothing.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,175   ~   ~   ~

Walk faster, damn your black heads.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,206   ~   ~   ~

Aye, damn 'em, hawks indeed; they are cursed dogs; a man is never safe where they are, but I'll take care to be out of their reach, let others take their chance, for I see they have no respect to persons--I suppose they wou'd shoot at me, if I were within their reach.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,210   ~   ~   ~

The scoundrels are grown so damn'd impudent too, that one can scarcely get a roasting pig now-a-days, but I'll be even with some of 'em by and by.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,219   ~   ~   ~

[_Sings._] _Give me the bottle, says the red face sot, For a whore I'd not give six-pence, not a groat._ Yet two is better than one, my Lord, for the scriptures further say, if one be alone, how can there be heat?

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,264   ~   ~   ~

Damn it, don't let us kick up a dust among ourselves, to be laugh'd at fore and aft--this is a hell of a council of war--though I believe it will turn out one before we've done--a scolding and quarrelling like a parcel of damn'd butter whores--I never heard two whores yet scold and quarrel, but they got to fighting at last.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,276   ~   ~   ~

Who the devil shou'd know, if you don't?--damn it, didn't you send for us?

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,286   ~   ~   ~

Aye, a damn'd affair indeed--many powder'd beaus--petit maitres--fops--fribbles--skip jacks--macaronies--jack puddings--noblemen's bastards and whores' sons fell that day--and my poor marines stood no more chance with 'em than a cat in hell without claws.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,291   ~   ~   ~

nothing yet, but eat Paramount's beef, and steal a few Yankee sheep--and that, it seems, is now become a damn'd lousy, beggarly trade too, for you hav'n't left yourselves a mouthful to eat.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,296   ~   ~   ~

[_Aside._] But avast, I must bowse taught there, or we shall get to loggerheads soon, we're such damn'd fighting fellows.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,310   ~   ~   ~

I think we're all a parcel of damn'd boobies for coming three thousand miles upon a wild-goose chase--to perish with cold--starve with hunger--get our brains knock'd out, or be hang'd for sheep-stealing and robbing hen-roosts.
