CAROLINE. Yes.
MME. DUPONT. You will never have them ready.
CAROLINE. I shall manage.
MME. DUPONT. You might do a little at them now, before dinner, instead of sitting there twiddling your fingers.
CAROLINE. I shall get up early to-morrow.
MME. DUPONT. Even if you do get up early—
CAROLINE. I shall begin at six, as soon as it is light.
MME. DUPONT. Still, you might do some work on them now.
CAROLINE. I would rather not.
MME. DUPONT. Because it’s Sunday, I suppose; and one mustn’t work on Sunday.
