MR. KNOWLE. Dear, dear. . . . Peters is in love just now. . . . I hope he didn't give you cider in mistake for petrol.
MRS. KNOWLE. You have a car, Mr. Mallory?
GERVASE. Yes.
MRS. KNOWLE. Ah! (To MELISANDE) Won't Mr. Mallory have some more tea, Sandy?
MELISANDE. Will you have some more tea, Mr. Mallory?
GERVASE. Thank you. (To MRS. KNOWLE) Won't you——
(He begins to get up.)
MRS. KNOWLE. Please don't trouble. I never have more than one cup. Dr. Anderson is very firm about that. Only one cup, Mrs. Knowle.
BOBBY (to MELISANDE). Sandwich? Oh, you're busy. Sandwich, Jane?
JANE (taking one). Thank you.
