-'Twas nothing, - I did not lose two drops of blood - 'twas not worth calling in a surgeon. - Thousands suffer by choice, what I did by accident. Doctor Slop made ten times more of it than he needed: and I am this day (August the 10th, 1761) paying the price of this man's reputation. - O, 'twould provoke a stone, to see how things go on in this world!
The chamber-maid had left no chamber pot under the bed:
'Cannot you contrive, master,' quoth Susannah, lifting up the sash window with one hand, as she spoke, and helping me up into the window-seat with the other, 'cannot you manage, my dear, just once, to **** *** ** *** ******?'
I was five years old. Susannah did not consider that nothing was well hung in our family, - so slap came the sash window down like lightning upon me.
- 'Nothing is left for me,' cried Susannah, 'but to flee the country.'
