“Would you marry me?”
“Why not? At any rate, we shouldn’t fight.”
“Horrible idea! But how can you be so sure?”
“Because we think alike.”
“Yes, but that might become monotonous. We should have nothing to talk about, because the one would always know what the other is thinking.”
“True; but wouldn’t it be even more monotonous if we remained unmarried and misunderstood?”
“You are right! Would you like to think it over?”
“Yes, until the cotillon.”
“No longer?”
“Why any longer?”
