A mistress tells her maid the soup is cold, and desires her to eat it directly. '3 Sue.' A man wearing tattered shoes says he will be "shoed". '4 Martyr.' A fat 'cit' tells a grenadier he has been "a Marcher to the cause". '5 Air.' A fat man tells a sporting friend he will "take the Hare". '6 Rise.' One man says "That it was - which gave Rise to it." The other answers ". . . Rice is a very good substitute" (i.e. for flour, cf. BMSat 9545, &c). '7 Chart.' A man desires a yokel to bring the "Cart" into the parlour. '8.' An elderly courtier tells his loutish footman to say he is "gone to Court". The man answers ". . . why the girls will laugh at you."
