ROYS. First and foremost—that the lady should have her head altered!
BART. (astonished). Have her head altered?
ROYS. I mean, have her hair dyed!
BART. Which condition the lady has not complied with?
ROYS. No, sir! It’s as red as ever!
BART. Then, sir, I’ve no hesitation in saying that the promise falls to the ground.
ROYS. Thank you, sir (seizing BARTON’S hand and shaking it—aside and sighing). Poor Sophia!
BART. May I inquire the name of my new client? (smiling).
ROYS. Royston.
BART. The Roystons of Banbury?
