Austen Said:

"Devil take those young dogs! How they are singing out! Ay, Sam's voice louder than all the rest! That boy is fit for a boatswain. Holla, you there! Sam, stop your confounded pipe, or I shall be after you."

"Come, girls; come, Fan; come, Sue, take care of yourselves; keep a sharp lookout!"

"What's the name of your great cousins in town, Fan?"

"And don't they live in Wimpole Street?"

"Then, there's the devil to pay among them, that's all! There"

"much good may such fine relations do you. I don't know what Sir Thomas may think of such matters; he may be too much of the courtier and fine gentleman to like his daughter the less. But, by G—! if she belonged to me, I'd give her the rope's end as long as I could stand over her. A little flogging for man and woman too would be the best way of preventing such things."

"It might be all a lie,"

"but so many fine ladies were going to the devil nowadays that way, that there was no answering for anybody."
