Harold. What a swell you have made me look!
Lucy. Good-bye; when shall I see you again?
Harold. Not until Sunday, I am afraid; I am so busy just now. But I'll come round early, and, if fine, we'll go and lunch at Richmond, and have a good walk across the Park afterwards. Would you like it?
Lucy. Above all things, but—but don't spend all your money on me.
Harold. Bother the money! I am going to be rich. Good-bye till Sunday.
Lucy. Au revoir; and while you are dining in your grand house, with lots of grand people, I am going to enjoy a delightful evening here, not alone, as I shall have your book for company. Good-bye.

Harold. Well, all I have to say is, I think you are most unreasonable.
