Come, come, Lawry, make no more wry faces, but kneel down here, and let that gentleman examine your head.

My head! he will not flog that end of me. The organs of excursiveness: this young gentleman plays truant pretty often.

O, what a true discovery! he's always running about. Proceed, proceed, if you please.

There is great paucity here in the organs of attention, and those of application seem to be wanting entirely.

O dear! how true it is! Your art discovers his nature at once. Pray proceed; something else may be discovered that will teach us how to manage him.

Keep him at home without his dinner till he has learnt his lesson, and he will do well enough.
