WITCH. In what way?
OLD LADY. Against my enemies.
WITCH. There is only one thing that helps against your enemies: be good to them.
OLD LADY. Well, I declare! I think the whole world has turned topsyturvy.
WITCH. Yes, so it may seem.
OLD LADY. Even the Other One—you know who I mean—has become converted.
WITCH. Then it ought to be time for you, too.
OLD LADY. Time for me? You mean that my years are burdening me? But it is less than three weeks since I danced at a wedding.
WITCH. And you call that bliss! Well, if that be all, you shall have your fill of it. For there is to be a ball here to-night, although I myself cannot attend it.
OLD LADY. Here?
