Yes, Miss Fullgarney.

Sophy.

That'll do. [With sudden fierceness.] What are you all staring at? Haven't any of you ever slept in a strange bed?

[The girls retreat hastily, each carrying an article belonging to Sophy.

Quex.

[Advancing a step or two.] I am exceedingly sorry to see you looking so fatigued.

Sophy.

[Faintly.] Didn't close my eyes the whole night. [She drops the portière over the entrance, and approaches Quex.] Well, my lord?

Quex.

I have ventured to call upon you, Miss Fullgarney, in the hope of ratifying the excellent understanding with which we parted last night.
