by Arthur Wing Pinero

Agatha Posket.

Pray do.

Lukyn.

Miss Verrinder, the process will occupy five minutes.

Vale.

[Giving his hat to Lukyn.] Lukyn, I return your kindness—my hat.

Lukyn.

Thank you, my boy.

[Lukyn puts on Vale’s hat, which is much too small for him. As he is going out there is a knock at the door; he opens it; Blond is outside.
