LETTER XXXIV.
HARRINGTON to WORTHY.
I find my temper grow extremely
irritable—my sensibility is wounded at
the slightest neglect—I am very tenacious of
every thing, and of every body.
A PARTY was made yesterday to go on
the water; I was omitted, and the neglect
hurt me. I inquired the cause, and what
think you is the answer? “I am no com
“pany—I am asked a question and return
“nothing to the point—I am absent---I am
“strangely altered within a few days---I am
“thinking of a different subject when I
“ought to be employed in conversation---I
“am extravagant in my observations---I
“am no company.”
THEY would persuade me that I am little
better than a mad man---I have no patience
with their nonsensical replies---Such nonſenſical">nonsensical replies---Such wifeacres
do not deserve my pity.
Farewel!
