HE. Then—then—shall we?

SHE. (sitting down and looking demurely at her toes) Oh, not if you don't want to!

HE. (adjusting himself to the situation) Well—under the circumstances—I suppose I ought to begin by asking you to marry me. .

SHE. (languidly, with a provoking glance) You don't seem very anxious to.

HE. (feeling at a disadvantage) It isn't that—but—well—

SHE. (lightly) Well what?

HE. Dash it all, I don't know your name!

SHE. (looking at him with mild curiosity) That didn't seem to stop you a while ago….

HE. (doggedly) Well, then—will you marry me?
