[Throwing away hit cigar, which has burned the tips of his fingers]: No, Grab, you're silly. There's a whole car-load full! One can smell the roses a mile away. They're to cover the entire arena.

The Shaven

Only the ring.

Henry

It's all the same. In order to cover the ring, you must have thousands and thousands of roses. You'll see what it looks like, when they've covered everything like a carpet. He ordered them to make it like a carpet! Do you see, Grab?

The Second

What a Baron's craze! Isn't it time yet?

Henry

No, we have time enough. I rather like it: a fiery-red tango on a fiery-red cover of winter roses!
