Ida. And will you permit Mr. Dasher—
Eva. No, indeed. Marry that fickle thing? Never!
Ida. Exactly my mind. Mr. Kid’s a fool.
Eva. But, like Mr. Dasher, a splendid waltzer. We cannot afford to lose them.
Ida. Indeed we cannot. Partners are so scarce.
Eva. They want father’s money.
Ida. But they must not have his daughters.
Eva. No, indeed. You watch me, and I’ll watch you, and there’ll be no proposals. (Retire to R. and L. Monsieur Adonis and Mrs. Mulligrub come down stage.)
Mrs. M. And you got my note, Munseer Adonis?
