Well, of course, Jack! How ridiculous you are! Should I be here if I didn’t know Mr. Cazenove?
SYLVESTER.
I haven’t the least notion. I only know you wouldn’t be at home.
MRS. SYLVESTER.
I was in all the morning.
SYLVESTER.
I had business at the Horse Guards. I shall be home to dinner, though.
MRS. SYLVESTER.
Oh dear, I wish I had known that. There’s only mutton.
SYLVESTER.
