mabel chiltern. Awfully!
lord goring. Then I am sorry I did not stay away longer. I like being missed.
mabel chiltern. How very selfish of you!
lord goring. I am very selfish.
mabel chiltern. You are always telling me of your bad qualities, Lord Goring.
lord goring. I have only told you half of them as yet, Miss Mabel!
mabel chiltern. Are the others very bad?
lord goring. Quite dreadful! When I think of them at night I go to sleep at once.
mabel chiltern. Well, I delight in your bad qualities. I wouldn’t have you part with one of them.
lord goring. How very nice of you! But then you are always nice. By the way, I want to ask you a question, Miss Mabel. Who brought Mrs. Cheveley here? That woman in heliotrope, who has just gone out of the room with your brother?
