Egg. Would you like one, sir?

Er, how fresh is it?

I don't believe it is left-over from my life, sir. So reasonably fresh, I daresay.

It is fortunate that I happen to have several packages of salt in my pocket, then.

My puppeteer is proudly brandishing her copy of Johnson's dictionary. If she had the original copies of Fielding's novels, she would be convulsing on the floor.
