Scene in a sitting room interior, on the window to which can be seen in reverse the sign 'lodgings to lett': in front of a chaise-longue, a man in fashionable clothes but with slightly grotesqued pointed nose and chin takes a young lady by both hands, in a pose reminiscent of a dance; he asks 'Pray miss, are you to be lett with the lodgings?', she, smiling, answers, 'No, sir. I am - to be let alone', he responds, 'Oh! very well, if you are to be lett alone! I'll hire you, &amp; d--n the lodgings!!!'.  1814
