order to see the country。  On the second day of my journey; not 

being used to such fatigue; I fell ill at a great inn on the north 

road; and there I continued for some weeks till I recovered; but by 

that time my money was entirely spent。  By living at the inn I had 

contracted an acquaintance with the master and the people; and 

become accustomed to inn life。  As I thought that I might find some 

difficulty in procuring any desirable situation in London; owing to 

my late connection with literature; I determined to remain where I 

was; provided my services would be accepted。  I offered them to the 

master; who; finding I knew something of horses; engaged me as a 

postilion。  I have remained there since。  You have now heard my 

story。



'Stay; you shan't say that I told my tale without a per … 

peroration。  What shall it be?  Oh; I remember something which will 

serve for one。  As I was driving my chaise some weeks ago; I saw 

standing at the gate of an avenue; which led up to an old mansion; 

a figure which I thought I recognised。  I looked at it attentively; 

and the figure; as I passed; looked at me; whether it remembered me 

I do not know; but I recognised the face it showed me full well。



'If it was not the identical face of the red…haired priest whom I 

had seen at Rome; may I catch cold!



'Young gentleman; I will now take a spell on your blanket … young 

lady; good…night。'
