SCENE VIII.
The exterior of Mrs Vizard's house. Large window. Balcony, area rails below. A court. Dead walls for side scenes, with blue posts at each end, through which the actors enter.Enter Blount.
BLOUNT.
For the curse of celebrity nothing atones.
The sharp parson I call on, as simple John Jones,
69
Than he cries, “Ha! the Patriot, the great Selden Blount!”
Mistress Vizard must hunt up some priest just from Cam,
Who may gaze on these features, nor guess who I am.
(Knocks.)
Not at home. Servant out too! Ah! gone forth, I guess,
To enchant the young bride with a new wedding-dress.
I must search for a parson myself.
(Enter Bellair from the opposite side.)
