Synopsis
Excerpt from Classic Comedies
Mrs. Hard. Lord, Mr. Hardcastle, you're forever at your Dorothys and your old wifes.
You may be a Darby, but I'll be no Joan, I promise you I'm not so old as you'd make me, by more than one good' year. Add twenty to twenty, and make money of that.
Hard. Let me see; twenty added to twenty makes just fifty and seven.
Mrs. Hard. It's false, Mr. Hardcastle I was but twenty when I was brought to bed of Tony, that I had by Mr. Lumpkin, my first husband and he's not come to years of discretion yet.

Classic Comedies (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a classic comedy, full of mistaken identities and romantic misadventures. First published in 1773, the author has a unique perspective on the social conventions of the 18th century and provides a humorous exploration of the clash between the old and new. The play's central theme of deception takes many forms; its characters use disguises and assume false identities to gain advantage over one another, leading to a hilarious series of misunderstandings. Through it all, this book illustrates how honesty, trust, and true love eventually conquer all. Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
