Mrs Jennings. If I had thought of it, I might have got into a first-class at Herne Hill, and have avoided all this bother.
Duke. That would have been cruel of you.
Mrs Jennings. Cruel? Why?
Duke. Because you would have left me alone.
Mrs Jennings. Now look here, my good friend, just stick to your travelling and don't make any more pretty speeches to me; that's the worst of third-class people, you never know what they will say next.
Duke. But my dear madam, I trust I have not said anything very startling—as yet.
Mrs Jennings. No, not as yet, but I daresay you will in a minute.
Duke. Well—I might be able to think of something—
Mrs Jennings. Now, you take care what you're about. I know what travellers are.
Duke. I should have thought that travelling made people pleasanter.
