Mr. Montague. Toby, bring some water this minute.
Toby. (Minnie brings him in with a pitcher.) Here, massa, here de water. My! see de ole woman wid her eye out! ha! ha!
Mrs. M. Toby, put down that water, and go 'way.
Minnie accordingly made believe that Toby was pouring water right on the floor; then she turned the pitcher upside down in his hand, and spoke for him.
Mrs. M. Oh! it's all over the carpet! How dare you, Toby?
Toby. Why, missis, you told me to put down de water!
Mrs. M. Oh, I shall go distracted!
Mr. Morris. Come, sister, I 'spect you'd better go home and send for Doctor Bumpstead! Maybe he can fish up your eyes again, and stick them in right side out. A—h! good-by, Miss Isabella, good-by, Mrs. Montague!
All the dolls in chorus. Good-by, a—h!
