When this cums to hand, be sure to pack up in the trunk male that stands in my closet; to be sent me in the Bristol waggon without loss of time, the following articles, viz. my rose collard neglejay with green robins, my yellow damask, and my black velvets with the short hoop; my bloo quilted petticot, my green mantel, my laced apron, my French commode, Macklin head and lappets and the litel box with my jowls.

Quando isto chegar às suas mãos, certifique-se de empacotar no baú masculino que está no meu armário; para ser enviado a mim na carroça de Bristol sem perda de tempo, os seguintes artigos, a saber: meu roupão cor-de-rosa com enfeites verdes, meu damasco amarelo, e meus veludos pretos com o arco curto; meu anágua acolchoada azul, meu manto verde, meu avental rendado, meu toucador francês, touca e lapelas Macklin e a caixinha com minhas joias.

I desire you'll clap a pad-luck on the wind-seller, and let none of the men have excess to the strong bear--don't forget to have the gate shit every evening be dark--The gardnir and the hind may lie below in the landry, to partake the house, with the blunderbuss and the great dog; and hope you'll have a watchful eye over the maids.

Desejo que coloque um cadeado na adega, e que nenhum dos homens tenha acesso à cerveja forte -- não se esqueça de fechar o portão todas as noites antes de escurecer -- O jardineiro e o criado podem dormir embaixo na lavanderia, para guardar a casa, com a espingarda e o cão grande; e espero que mantenha um olho vigilante sobre as criadas.

I know that hussy Mary Jones, loves to be rumping with the men.

Let me know Alderney's calf be sould yet, and what he fought--if the ould goose be sitting; and if the cobler has cut Dicky, and how pore anemil bore the operation.
