before?

BLACKMAN

      Would you have me be laying out my money, while I only let the place at a paltry price, to people who I am obliged to threaten to turn into the streets every quarter, before I can get my rent from them?

BLUNTLY

      Is that the situation of your lodgers at present?

BLACKMAN

      Yes. – But they made a better appearance when they first came, or I had not taken such persons to live thus near to your master.

BLUNTLY

      That girl (looking at Eleanor) seems very pretty – and I dare say my master would not care if he was nearer to her.

BLACKMAN

      Pshaw, pshaw – she is a poor creature – she is in great distress. She is misery itself.

BLUNTLY

      I feel quite charmed with misery. – Who belongs to her?

BLACKMAN

      A young man who says he is her brother – very likely he is not – but that I should not enquire about, if they could pay my rent. If people will pay me, I don't care what they are. (Addressing himself to Eleanor) I desire you will tell your brother when he comes in, that I have occasion for the money which will be due to me to-morrow – and if I don't receive it before to-morrow night, he must seek some other habitation.
