Enter Countess, and Mrs. Haller.
Countess. Well, Mrs. Haller, how do you like the man that just now left us?
Mrs. H. Who?
Countess. My brother.
Mrs. H. He deserves to be your brother.
Countess. [Curtseying.] Your most obedient! That shall be written in my pocket-book.
Mrs. H. Without flattery then, madam, he appears to be most amiable.
Countess. Good!—And a handsome man?
Mrs. H. [With indifference.] Oh, yes.
Countess. "Oh, yes!" It sounded almost like, "Oh, no!" But I must tell you, that he looks upon you to be a handsome woman [Mrs. Haller smiles.] You make no reply to this?
