Of the Great Bespeak1 for Miss Snevellicci, and thefirst Appearance of Nicholas upon any Stage.

  Nicholas was up betimes in the morning; but he hadscarcely begun to dress, notwithstanding, when he heardfootsteps ascending3 the stairs, and was presently salutedby the voices of Mr Folair the pantomimist, and Mr Lenville, thetragedian.

  ‘House, house, house!’ cried Mr Folair.

  ‘What, ho! within there” said Mr Lenville, in a deep voice.

  ‘Confound these fellows!’ thought Nicholas; ‘they have come tobreakfast, I suppose. I’ll open the door directly, if you’ll wait aninstant.’

  The gentlemen entreated4 him not to hurry himself; and, tobeguile the interval5, had a fencing bout6 with their walking-stickson the very small landing-place: to the unspeakable discomposureof all the other lodgers7 downstairs.

  ‘Here, come in,’ said Nicholas, when he had completed histoilet. ‘In the name of all that’s horrible, don’t make that noiseoutside.’

  ‘An uncommon8 snug9 little box this,’ said Mr Lenville, steppinginto the front room, and taking his hat off, before he could get in atall. ‘Pernicious snug.’

  ‘For a man at all particular in such matters, it might be a trifletoo snug,’ said Nicholas; ‘for, although it is, undoubtedly10, a greatconvenience to be able to reach anything you want from the ceiling or the floor, or either side of the room, without having tomove from your chair, still these advantages can only be had in anapartment of the most limited size.’

  ‘It isn’t a bit too confined for a single man,’ returned MrLenville. ‘That reminds me,—my wife, Mr Johnson,—I hope she’llhave some good part in this piece of yours?’
