HEART-TO-HEART TALKS.
(The German CROWN PRINCE and Ex-King CONSTANTINE.)
Crown Prince. My poor old TINO, you are certainly not looking yourself. Have a drink?
Tino. No, thank you. I really don't feel up to it.
C. P. But that's the moment of all others when you ought to take one. It's good stuff too—bubbly wine out of the cellar of one of my French châteaux. Come, I'll pour you out a glass.
Tino. Well, if I must I must (drinks). Yes, there's no fault to be found with it.
C. P. You're looking better already. Now you can tell me all about it.
Tino (bitterly). Oh, there's not much to tell, except that I was lured on by the promise of help, and when the crisis came there was no help, and so I had to go.
C. P. (humming an air).
