MRS. DELANE. I hope they will not arrest her along with you.
MR. QUIRKE. I'll give myself up to justice. I'll plead guilty! I'll be recommended to mercy!
MRS. DELANE. It might be best for you.
MR. QUIRKE. Who would think so great a misfortune could come upon a family through the bringing away of one sheep!
HYACINTH. [Coming forward.] Let you make yourself easy.
MR. QUIRKE. Easy! It's easy to say let you make yourself easy.
HYACINTH. I can tell you where it is.
MR. QUIRKE. Where what is?
HYACINTH. The sheep you are fretting after.
MR. QUIRKE. What do you know about it?
