Tim. Quite a genius frittered away on a lost soul.

Juan. It may be so.

Nem. And by what did you recognise this something?

Nem. And where?

Juan. It was on awaking from a drunken bout.

Tim. Now that you are going to ascend to the sublime don’t say a drunken bout.

Juan. Well then, on arising from an orgie.

Nem. That’s well. “To Jarifa in an Orgie,” Espronceda. (Drinks.)
