Tomp. I have a score, and they will exercise every care in getting it out.
Dunn. Care’s of no use, and a hundred men couldn’t get the Statue out! It isn’t here.
Tomp. Not here!
Omnes. Not here!
Tomp. What do you mean?
Hel. The figure has not been moved.
Corn. (R.) It’s here in the screen right enough, it couldn’t fly out of the window. (opening screen) Gone!
Omnes. Gone!!!
Tomp. Nothing but the Pedestal!
Dunn. (advancing R. C.) Didn’t I tell you so? Do you think I am incapable of ever speaking the truth?
