Manly
What's so much the better?
Jeremy Yes, indeed. We won't soon be defeated. Because if he refuses to leave by the door, we must throw him out the window.
Manly
Oh, shut up, stupid—leave us alone so we can consider.
(Trim's voice: Tally-ho!)
Anna
I hear someone. It sounds like Trim.
Elizabeth
If it's Trim, my brother isn't far away.
Anna Return to your room, Miss Elizabeth. You, gentlemen, go join your pretended comrades. I wish to sound out Trim and learn from him whether or not Walter has some inclination. In that case, you have common interests, and I plan to unite them to upset your father's plans.
Elizabeth
Good idea. We must let her try. Her efforts may be useful to us.
Manly You can count on being rewarded in proportion to the degree your services prove useful to us.
(Enter Trim, dressed for the hunt, with a hunting horn.)
