[There is a hurried knocking at the door.]
Sir William.
[Startled.] Who's that? [Struggling with the chain and belt.] Remove these———!
[The handle is heard to rattle. Sir William disappears behind the curtains. Imogen opens the door and looks in.]
Imogen.
[Seeing only Rose, and coming to her and embracing her.] Rose darling, where is Tom Wrench?
Rose.
He was here not long since——
Imogen.
[Going to the door and calling, desperately.] Tom! Tom Wrench! Mr. Wrench!
