Jul.—They seem about a mile-and-a-half from the earth.

Rom.—But they are not so far from the earth as you are from me.

Jul. (leaning over)—We are nearer now.

Rom. (holding spout of water-pot)—And the waterpot join us. For how long?

Jul.—Until I am tired of holding it, I suppose.

Rom.—Will you be out to-morrow morning?

Jul.—I always go to the village to get an egg for papa’s breakfast.

Rom.—Meet me at the Friar’s.

Jul.—What for?
