You'll have some tea?

Gioconda.

Can't. Sorry. Told two men I'd play a foursome with them at 5.10.
You'd better make the fourth.

Hilda.

I really can't. I've got some new delphiniums I must plant.

Gioconda (going out, left).

See you to-morrow, then.

Hilda.

You'll drive me frantic If you're not just the teeniest bit romantic!
