My dear sir, if I lost by you how do you think I should garry on my business? One must live. But you artists don't give us much chance. You are always bleeding us for what you call "a bit on aggount."

REMBRANDT TEMPENNY (coming down).

Your conversation is very interesting, but I wish to see Mr. Tempenny. He is not here, and if he is not coming I shall go. Allah Bismillah Remdazzlegefoo!

HENRICH SCHERCL.

(Aside to CHARLES SYLVESTER.) What does he say?

CHARLES SYLVESTER.

(Aside to HENRICH SCHERCL.) He's swearing because Tempenny is out.

REMBRANDT TEMPENNY.

I wanted to buy some of his great works. The Maharajah of Battledore told me that he was one of your most favourite painters.
