SCENE I.--LUCKLESS's _Room in_ Mrs MONEYWOOD'S _House_.--Mrs MONEYWOOD, HARRIOT, LUCKLESS.

_Moneywood_. Never tell me, Mr Luckless, of your play, and your play. I tell you I must be paid. I would no more depend on a benefit-night of an unacted play than I would on a benefit-ticket in an undrawn lottery. Could I have guessed that I had a poet in my house! Could I have looked for a poet under laced clothes!
