Did you take my dress suit to be pressed?

HEINRICH

Yes, sir: he will bring it back in an hour.

[Starts R.

KARL

Good! Here's a crown. Get me a white tie, same as the last one.

[HEINRICH starts R.

Hold on! Put out a dress shirt on the bed, then look for my pearl buttons—they are probably in the top drawer—in a match-box. Stop! Give me that crown. Take this.

[Gives him a bill.

Get me a pair of white gloves, seven and a half. Oh! and Heinrich, before you go, put the Venetian chair next to the window. At three o'clock Mrs. Zanden will be here to have her portrait painted, and I shall be at home to nobody.
