IRIS. Benham will make you some fresh tea, dear. Give Nancy a special kiss from me.

BROXOPP. Thank you, Iris, I will.

NORAH (at the door). The whole question of kissing seems to me——

RONNY. Oh, come off it. (He drags her away.)

JACK. Cheer-oh, Dad! You and Mother might come along and watch us if you’ve nothing better to do. (To RONNY, in front) All right, we’re coming.

[They go out.

[58](Left alone, BROXOPP rings the bell, and then sits down in rather a bewildered way.)

BENHAM comes in.

BROXOPP. We shall want some fresh tea for Mrs. Chillingham when she comes in.

BENHAM. Yes, sir. I think I saw her just coming through the rose-garden, sir.
