Simon. Hush! (Looks around.) Nancy, can you keep a secret?
Nancy. Try me.
Simon. Without opening your lips?
Nancy. Try me.
Simon (throws his arm about her, prisoning her arms.) There, keep that, Nancy. (Kisses her, and runs up C.)
Nancy (fiercely). You horrid wretch! (Chases him up to door C. beating him with brush. He exits C.)
Nancy (coming down wiping her mouth). Well, this is a new business to him, and I hope he’ll stick to it.
(Exit I. E. R. Enter May Door L.)
