Dr. A. Well, you hear what this man says; did you take this wine?
Ruth. Ay, I took it, sure enough.
Dr. A. Why did you take it?
Ruth. Why, to drink, of course. Why should I take it?
Dr. A. You shouldn’t take it.
Ruth. Don’t you never take wine?
Dr. A. Not other people’s wine—except, of course, with their permission.
Ruth. Maybe you’ve got a cellar of your own.
Dr. A. Maybe I have.
Ruth. Well, maybe I haven’t. That’s my answer.
