sarah. We'll talk to Papa.

george. The war-purse is always a long one.

sarah. George . . be one of us for a minute.

george. But I want to look on too, and laugh.

sarah. [Caustically.] Yes . . that's your privilege . . except occasionally. [Then to her sister.] I wish you all the happiness of courtship days.

george. Arcadian expression!
