The Rivals. 

 "Adieu and — au revoir — " to night 



22 



Pray let us meet, my heart's delight, 

 Behind your father's Bee-house, when 

 The Church-clock shall have sounded ten. 

 Eugene, still smarting with the canei 

 His heart on fire, with jealous pain, 



O'erheard the place of assignation,' 

 And crept out from his hidden station; 

 Eushed to the Bee-house, found John Dull 

 Asleep, and snoring hke a bull. 

 "Wake, Uncle, wake" in startling tone 

 He shouted, "for your swarm is gone."
