SCENE V.

CHRYSALUS alone.
Chry.
A matter of great pith I undertake,
And how I shall to-day accomplish it
I have my fears—A churlish, crusty chap
I have to deal with—'Twould not suit my plot,
At our first interview he should be calm—
Well, if I live, I'll turn him well to-day,
And parch him well, as pea was ever parch'd—
I'll walk before the door, and put immediately
The tablet in his hands as he comes out.
