Tesman.
I’m delighted! Quite delighted! Only I can’t think what we are to do with the two empty rooms between this inner parlour and Hedda’s bedroom.
Miss Tesman.
[Laughing.] Oh my dear George, I daresay you may find some use for them—in the course of time.
Tesman.
Why of course you are quite right, Aunt Julia! You mean as my library increases—eh?
Miss Tesman.
Yes, quite so, my dear boy. It was your library I was thinking of.
Tesman.
I am specially pleased on Hedda’s account. Often and often, before we were engaged, she said that she would never care to live anywhere but in Secretary Falk’s villa.[[14]]
