DAVID. The position is that without the three hundred you can’t soar.

JOHN. You have me there.

MAGGIE. Yes, but—

ALICK. You see YOU’RE safeguarded, Maggie; you don’t need to take him unless you like, but he has to take you.

JOHN. That’s an unfair arrangement also.

MAGGIE. I wouldn’t dream of it without that condition.

JOHN. Then you ARE thinking of it?

MAGGIE. Poof!

DAVID. It’s a good arrangement for you, Mr. Shand. The chances are you’ll never have to go on with it, for in all probability she’ll marry soon.

JAMES. She’s tremendous run after.
