(Enter MAYNARD.)
MAYNARD: (To HARVEY.) Well, sir, and what can I do for you?
HARVEY: Your servant told me you were looking for a ferocious dog and I think I have an animal that will just suit you.
MAYNARD: Yes, I do want a savage dog, and if you have such a beast we can do business together.
FELIX: (Aside.) Now, I'm a beast.
(HARVEY kicks at FELIX to get him to shut up.)
HARVEY: (Pointing to FELIX.) This animal is so ferocious that if anyone should come across his path at night when he is unchained he would tear him limb from limb.
MAYNARD: (Noticing FELIX.) Is this the dog?
HARVEY: (Rubbing his hands.) Yes, sir, and if you searched the world over, you couldn't find a more savage high-bred animal. He is full of animation.
MAYNARD: (Scratching himself.) I think he is full of fleas. But, tell me, what do you ask for him?
