ns.
We expect to go home.
When
When the cigarettes come. I know these were stale. If I go to the war I
will be readily excused because I am lame. You have every reason to be
lame. You are a waiter but the out of door life may do you good.
Genevieve.
I could not leave the house as I was expecting the reparation of a
mattress.
You did not find it necessary to leave the house.
Not in the morning.
William and Mary.
William is William and he does not use any precaution. He is not very
adroit.
She. Will you drink wine.
I do.
I know that but will you take any now.
I don't mind the taste of it.
This is really not wine. It is a concoction of brown sugar and water and
fermented juice. I call it wine it is a drink. I did not know it was not
wine.
The count.
Why does the count wish for this house. He wishes for it because it has
all conveniences. It really hasn't but it is better situated than the
one he has now.
Raymond and Jenny.
I do like a Spanish name a Spanish name always begins with a V.
We went together.
We went together and we did not go to the Opera. The opera that was
being given was Boris Goudonoff.
SCENE III.
A whole collection of stamps. A family meeting.
Where did you get it.
I got it when I saw the envelope.
Where did you see it.
Don't hold it.
Don't spoil it.
Let me see it.
Thanks.
Thanks so much.
I thank you.
I thank you for your kindness.
Please make a collection of flowers.
Collecting flowers is not a misery. You have to carry something a
handkerchief will do and more than that is perfectly selfish.
We are not perfectly selfish.
William. Do be persevering.
Mrs. Clement. I am. I do not leave my house.
Genevieve. Don't you leave your house.
Mr. and Mrs. Clement. We do.
Maud. The hills would be better than water. We like water.
Mrs. Clement. Everybody likes water.
Maud. And fish.
Genevieve. I do not care for the fish here.
William. Radishes.
Maud. Radishes are strong.
Mrs. Clement. I am glad to have seen you.
SCENE IV.
An interlude.
If you were a Breton and read a book and understood Spanish would you be
richer than a frenchman who talked in a field. If a man talked in a
field and told about papers and contraband and laughed would you see a
resemblance in him to a Swiss. I would. This is what happened. He says
it is very necesssary to be young to be young and unmarried and then you
can not do
