Kate—Strange, I’ve been prepared for every hour but this——
James—Yet I dare say you’ve never cried out.

Kate—Sometimes I found myself on my knees——
James—And sometimes?
Kate—That’s enough, haven’t we about cleared all the shavings out of the carpenter shop?
Henry—You at least will never kill yourself.
Kate—Not likely, I’ll probably die in bed with my slippers on—you see, I have a pretty foot.
