Intelligence Extraordinary. We hear that a new patriot near
Charing-Cross, intends to appear at the ensuing Masquerade
in his new character, and that Balfe and MacQuirk, who have
likewise received the new political light, are to carry the
boot and petticoat, the ensigns of patriotism, before him
the whole evening. . . [15 lines, other characters]

invisible Harlequin's dress sent from Ireland; and with his
wooden sword to slap whoever he pleases, while no blow,
however well returned, will be able to touch his person. . .
