on't you?

AUSTIN. I'll bring them here if I find them--

[_He goes out Right._

[_JINNY looks up where he went off and gazes, motionless, for a few
moments. Then she throws off the mood and opens a letter._

[_Two tired Americans enter Right, a girl and her mother, MRS. LOPP
and CARRIE._

MRS. LOPP. What's this, Carrie?

CARRIE. [_Looking in her Baedeker._] I don't know; I've sort of lost my
place, somehow!

MRS. LOPP. Well, we must be in Room No. 3 or 4--ain't we?

CARRIE. [_Reads out._] The big statue at the end of Room No. 3 is Diana
the Huntress.

MRS. LOPP. This must be it, then,--Diana! Strong-looking woman, ain't
she?

CARRIE. Yes, very nice. You know she was the goddess who wouldn't let
the men see her bathe.

MRS. LOPP. Mercy, Carrie! and did all the other goddesses? I don't think
much of their habits. I suppose this is the same person those Italians
sell on the streets at home, and call the Bather.

[_JINNY is secretly very much amused, finally she speaks._

JINNY. Excuse me, but you are in one of the cabinets--and this is the
Apollo Belvedere.

MRS. LOPP. Oh, thank you very much. I guess we've got mixed up with the
rooms,--seems as if there's so many.

CARRIE. [_Triumphantly._] There! I _thought_ it was a man all the time!

MRS. LOPP. Well, what with so many of the statues only being piecemeal,
as it were, and so many of the men having kinder women's hair, I declare
it seems as if I don't know the ladies from the gentlemen half the time.

CARRIE. Did the rest of us go through here?

JINNY. I beg your pardon?

CARRIE. Thirty-four people with a gassy guide? We got so tired hearing
him talk that we jes' sneaked off by ourselves, and now we're a little
scared about getting home; we belong to the Cook's Gentlemen and Ladies.

JINNY. Oh, no, the others haven't passed through here; probably they
have gone to see the pictures; you'd better go back and keep asking the
attendants the way to the pictures till you get there.

MRS. LOPP. [_With rather subdued voice._] Thank you! We've come to do
Europe and the Holy Land in five weeks for $400--but I don't know, seems
as if I'm getting awful tired--after jes' sevin days.

CARRIE. [_Affectionately._] Now, mommer, don't give up; it's because you
haven't got over being seasick yet; that's all!

JINNY. [_Helplessly._] Oh, yes, you'll find it much less tiring in a few
days, I'm sure.

MRS. LOPP. Still Rome does seem a powerful way fro
