OF
PUNCH AND JUDY.
[ACT I.]
Scene.—The Forest.
Showman (outside, calling out). Now, Mr. Punch, I want you to show yourself.
Punch (within). All right; let me put my boot on.
Showman. Your boot on—hurry up.
Enter Punch. After a few preliminary squeaks, he bows three times to the spectators—once in the centre and once at each side of the stage, and then vigorously beats the stage with his club.
Enter Scaramouch.
