Excerpt from Single Life
Miss Sna. For, like most first great causes, you don't under stand us. Dam. If I don't, I have no wish to acquire any such useless knowledge. May I ask what you want at my friend Niggle's, so early in the morning: some conspiracy, I'll be bound. I wont allow it, Miss Snare; if you think to inveigle him into matrimony, you'll find yourself mistaken; he Shall never marry, if I can prevent him making such a ninny of himself.

Excerpt from Single Life: A Comedy in Three Acts
"Single Life" is intended as a companion picture to the same author's Comedy of "Married Life;" and as that attempted to illustrate a few of the humours of the state matrimonial, and interest an audience without the introduction of any lovers whatever, in going to the opposite extreme in "Single Life," and making his characters "Lovers all," he has been equally successful in portraying some of the vagaries of courtship, and showing that the democratic region of celibacy has its bickerings, as well as the most loyal one of "The United States."
