only one。
JEAN。 Geordie�察�I want nae mair o' your nonsense�察�mind。
SMITH。 There's our old particular the Deacon�察�now。 Why is he
ashamed of a lovely woman�拭 �That's not my idea of the Young
Chevalier�察�Jean。 If I had luck�察�we should be married�察�and retire
to our estates in the country�察�shouldn't us�拭�and go to church and
be happy�察�like the nobility and gentry。
JEAN。 Geordie Smith�察�div ye mean ye'd mairry me��
SMITH。 Mean it�拭 �What else has ever been the 'umble petition of
your honest but well´meaning friend�察�Roman�察�and
fellow´countryman�拭 �I know the Deacon's your man�察�and I know he's
a cut above G。 S。�察�but he won't last�察�Jean�察�and I shall。
JEAN。 Ay�察�I'm muckle ta'en up wi' him�察�wha could help it��
SMITH。 Well�察�and my sort don't grow on apple´trees either。
JEAN。 Ye're a fine�察�cracky�察�neebourly body�察�Geordie�察�if ye wad
just let me be。
SMITH。 I know I ain't a Scotchman born。
JEAN。 I dinna think sae muckle the waur o' ye even for that�察�if
ye would just let me be。
��HUNT ��ENTERING BEHIND�察�ASIDE��。 Are they thick�拭 �Anyhow�察�it's a
second chance。��
SMITH。 But he won't last�察�Jean�察�and when he leaves you�察�you come
to me。 Is that your taste in pastry�拭 �That's the kind of
harticle that I present。
HUNT ��SURPRISING THEM AS IN TABLEAU I。��。 Why�察�you're the very
parties I was looking for��
JEAN。 Mercy me��
SMITH。 Damn it�察�Jerry�察�this is unkind。
HUNT。 ��Now this is what I call a picter of good fortune。�А �Ain't
it strange I should have dropped across you comfortable and
promiscuous like this��
JEAN ��STOLIDLY��。 I hope ye're middling weel�察�Mr。 Hunt�拭 。�GOING。��
Mr。 Smith��
SMITH。 Mrs。 Watt�察�ma'am� 。�GOING。��
HUNT。 Hold hard�察�George。 Speaking as one lady's man to another��
turn about's fair play。 You've had your confab�察�and now I'm
going to have mine。 ��Not that I've done with you�察�you stand by
and wait。�А �Ladies first�察�George�察�ladies first�察�that's the size
of it。 ��TO JEAN�察�ASIDE。�� Now�察�Mrs。 Watt�察�I take it you ain't a
natural fool��
JEAN。 And thank ye kindly�察�Mr。 Hunt。
SMITH ��INTERFERING��。 Jean 。 。 。 ��
HUNT ��KEEPING HIM OFF��。 Half a tick�察�George。 ��TO JEAN。�� Mrs。
Watt�察�I've a warrant in my pocket。 One�察�two�察�three�此 �will you
peach��
JEAN。 Whaten kind of a word'll that be��
SMITH。 Mum it is�察�Jean��
HUNT。 WHEN you've done dancing�察�George� 。�TO JEAN。�� It ain't a
pretty expression�察�my dear�察�I own it。 'Will you blow the gaff��'
is perhaps more tenderer。
JEAN。 I think ye've a real strange way o' expressin yoursel'。
HUNT ��TO JEAN��。 I can't waste time on you�察�my girl。 It's now or
never。 Will you turn king's evidence��
JEAN。 I think ye'll have made a mistake�察�like。
HUNT。 Well�察�I'm 。。。 � 。�SEPARATING THEM。�� ��No�察�not yet�察�don't
push me。�А �George's turn now。 ��TO GEORGE。�� George�察�I've a
warrant in my pocket。
SMITH。 As per usual�察�Jerry��
HUNT。 Now I want king's evidence。
SMITH。 Ah� �so you came a cropper with HER�察�Jerry。 Pride had a
fall。
HUNT。 A free pardon and fifty shiners down。
SMITH。 A free pardon�察�Jerry��
HUNT。 Don't I tell you so��
SMITH。 And fifty down�拭�fifty��
HUNT。 On the nail。
SMITH。 So you came a cropper with her�察�and then you tried it on
with me��
HUNT。 I suppose you mean you're a born idiot��
SMITH。 What I mean is�察�Jerry�察�that you've broke my heart。 I
used to look up to you like a party might to Julius Caesar。 One
more of boyhood's dreams gone pop。 ��ENTER MOORE�察�L。��
HUNT ��TO BOTH��。 Come�察�then�察�I'll take the pair�察�and be damned to
you。 Free pardon to both�察�fifty down and the Deacon out of the
way。 I don't care for you commoners�察�it's the Deacon I want。
JEAN ��LOOKING OFF STOLIDLY��。 I think the kirks are scalin'。
There seems to be mair people in the streets。
HUNT。 O that's the way�察�is it�拭 �Do you know that I can hang you��
my woman�察�and your fancy man a well��
JEAN。 I daur say ye would like fine�察�Mr。 Hunt�察�and here's my
service to you。 ��GOING。��
HUNT。 George�察�don't you be a tomfool�察�anyway。 Think of the
blowen here�察�and have brains for two。
SMITH ��GOING��。 Ah�察�Jerry�察�if you knew anything�察�how different
you would talk� 。�THEY GO TOGETHER�察�R。��
SCENE III
HUNT�察�MOORE
HUNT。 Half a tick�察�Badger。 You're a man of parts�察�you are��
you're solid�察�you're a true´born Englishman�察�you ain't a
Jerry´go´Nimble like him。 Do you know what your pal the Deacon's
worth to you�拭 �Fifty golden Georges and a free pardon。 No
questions asked�察�and no receipts demanded。 What do you say�拭 �Is
it a deal��
MOORE ��AS TO HIMSELF��。 Muck。 ��HE GOES OUT�察�R。��
SCENE IV
HUNT�察�TO WHOM AINSLIE
HUNT ��LOOKING AFTER THEM RUEFULLY��。 And these were the very
parties I was looking for� 。�Ah�察�Jerry�察�Jerry�察�if they knew this
at the office�。А �Well�察�the market price of that 'ere two hundred
is a trifle on the decline and fall。 ��LOOKING L。�� Hullo� �
��SLAPPING HIS THIGH��。 Send me victorious� �It's king's evidence
on two legs。 ��ADVANCING WITH GREAT CORDIALITY TO MEET AINSLIE��
WHO ENTERS L。�� And so your name's Andrew Ainslie�察�is it�拭 �As I
was saying�察�you're the very party I was looking for。 Ain't it
strange�察�now�察�that I should have dropped across you comfortable
and promiscuous like this��
AINSLIE。 I dinna ken wha ye are�察�an' I'm ill for my bed。
HUNT。 Let your bed wait�察�Andrew。 I want a little chat with you��
just a quiet little sociable wheeze。 Just about our friends�察�you
know。 About Badger Moore�察�and George the Dook�察�and Jemmy Rivers��
and Deacon Brodie�察�Andrew。 Particularly Deacon Brodie。
AINSLIE。 They're nae friens o' mine's�察�mister。 I ken naething
an' naebody。 An' noo I'll get to my bed�察�wulln't I��
HUNT。 We're going to have our little talk out first。 After that
perhaps I'll let you go�察�and perhaps I won't。 It all depends on
how we get along together。 Now�察�in a general way�察�Andrew�察�and
speaking of a man as you find him�察�I'm all for peace and
quietness myself。 That's my usual game�察�Andrew�察�but when I do
make a dust I'm considered by my friends to be rather a good hand
at it。 So don't you tread upon the worm。
AINSLIE。 But I'm sayin' ´
HUNT。 You leave that to me�察�Andrew。 You shall do your pitch
presently。 I'm first on the ground�察�and I lead off。 With a
question�察�Andrew。 Did you ever hear in your life of such a
natural curiosity as a Bow Street Runner��
AINSLIE。 Aiblins ay an' aiblins no。
HUNT。 'Aiblins ay and aiblins no。' Very good indeed�察�Andrew。
Now�察�I'll ask you another。 Did you ever see a Bow Street Runner��
Andrew�拭 �With the naked eye�察�so to speak��
AINSLIE。 What's your wull��
HUNT。 Artful bird� �Now since we're getting on so cosy AND so
free�察�I'll ask you another�察�Andrew。 Should you like to see a Bow
Street Runner�拭 。�PRODUCING STAFF。�� 'Cos�察�if so�察�you've only got
to cast your eyes on me。 Do you queer the red weskit�察�Andrew�拭�
Pretty colour�察�ain't it�拭 �So nice and warm for the winter too。
��AINSLIE DIVES�察�HUNT COLLARS HIM。�� No�察�you don't。 Not this
time。 Run away like that before we've finished our little
conversation�拭 �You're a nice young man�察�you are。 Suppose we
introduce our wrists into these here darbies�拭 �Now we shall get
along cosier and freer than ever。 Want to lie down�察�do you�拭 �All
right� �anything to oblige。
AINSLIE ��GROVELLING��。 It wasna me�察�it wasna me。 It's bad
companions�察�I've been lost wi' bad companions an' the drink。 An'
O mister�察�ye'll be a kind gentleman to a puir lad�察�an' me sae
weak�察�an' fair rotten wi' the drink an' that。 Ye've a bonnie
kind heart�察�my dear�察�dear gentleman�察�ye wadna hang sitchan a
thing as me。 I'm no fit to hang。 They ca' me the Cannleworm� �
An' I'll dae somethin' for ye�察�wulln't I�拭 �An' ye'll can hang the
ithers��
HUNT。 I thought I hadn't mistook my man。 Now�察�you look here�察�
Andrew Ainslie�察�you're a bad lot。 I've evidence to hang you
fifty times over。 But the Deacon is my mark。 Will you peach�察�or
wont you�拭 �You blow the gaff�察�and I'll pull you through。 You
don't�察�and I'll scragg you as sure as my name's Jerry Hunt。
AINSLIE。 I'll dae onything。 It's the hanging fleys me。 I'll
dae onything�察�onything no to hang。
HUNT。 Don't lie crawling there�察�but get up and answer me like a
man。 Ain't this Deacon Brodie the fine workman that's been doing
all these tip´topping burglaries��
AINSLIE。 It's him�察�mister�察�it's him。 That's the man。 Ye're in
the very bit。 Deacon Brodie。 I'll can tak' ye to his vera door。
HUNT。 How do you know��
AINSLIE。 I gi'ed him a han' wi' them a'。 It was him an' Badger
Moore�察�and Geordie Smith�察�an' they gart me gang wi' them whether
or no�察�I'm that weak�察�an' whiles I'm donner'd wi' the drink。
But I ken a'�察�an' I'll tell a'。 And O kind gentleman�察�you'll
speak to their lordships for me�察�an' I'll no be hangit。 。 。 I'll
no be hangit�察�wull I��
HUNT。 But you shared�察�didn't you�拭 �I wonder what share they
thought you worth。 How much did you get for last night's
performance down at Mother Clarke's��
AINSLIE。 Just five pund�察�mister。 Five pund。 As sure's deith it
wadna be a penny mair。 No but I askit mair�此 �I did that�察�I'll do
deny it�察�mister。 But Badger kickit me�察�an' Geordie�察�he said a
bad sweir�察�an' made he'd cut the liver out o' me�察�
