[On the painting Blackadder had made to blackmail the Bishop of Bath and Wells]
By the horns of Beelzebub, how did you get me into that position?!
It's beautifully framed, don't you think? Which is ironic, really, because that's exactly what's happened to you.
You fiend! Never have I encountered such corrupt and foul-minded perversity! Have you ever considered a career in the church?!
No, I could never get used to the underwear. What I could use, though, is, say, eleven-hundred pounds to buy back my house, four thousand pounds to cover some sundry expenses, ten shillings for the two doors and thruppence for a celebratory slap-up binge at Mrs Miggins' Pie Shop.
