Napoleon says
"Hollo you John Bull, take notice I have got on my seven League Corsican Boots that never fails me; depend on it, I'll step across the Water one of these days and pay you a visit, Master Bull."
John Bull says
"D__n your boots and your shoes too -- Where I sit is my own little land in the ocean -- and if you attempt to stir a foot, there's a few of my wooden walls [i.e. ships] in the offing shall give you a pretty Peppering."

Ships are visible in distance.
