HARRIET. Well, I've heard his work well mentioned.
MAGGIE. Yes, he is doing splendid work.
MARGARET. Oh, dear me, no. He is only praised by the masses. He is accepted not at all by artists themselves.
HETTY [anxiously]. Must I really pay the full price?
HARRIET. Le Grange thought I would make a good subject.
MAGGIE [to MARGARET]. Let her fish for it.
MARGARET. Of course you would. Why don't you let Le Grange paint you, if you trust him?
HETTY. She doesn't seem anxious to have John do it.
HARRIET. But if Le Grange isn't accepted by artists, it would be a waste of time to pose for him, wouldn't it?
MARGARET. Yes, I think it would.
