Arthur.

I am coming, sir—- [He goes out quickly.]

De Foenix.

[Approaching Rose and taking her hand sympathetically.] Haw——-! I—weally—haw!——

Rose.

Yes, I know what you would say. Thank you, Captain Fred.

Clara.

[Embracing Rose.] Never mind! we will continue to let Arthur out at night as usual. I am a married woman! [joining De Foenix], and a married woman will turn, if you tread upon her often enough——-!

[De Foenix and Clara depart.]

Rose.
