X.. Keep on your horse, sir, pray! I went out of your sight.

Now, why should you go through the form of dismounting when you are so tired?

. Not dismount, indeed! If I had not seen you, well and good; but when I did see you ever so far off, you would not have had me pass you on horseback, would you?

. Well, sir, won’t you step in and sit down?

. Oh, yes, I’ll step in and sit down a moment, it is so long since we met.
