Don't dance any more, darling, you look worn out.

Violet.

Supposing you danced with your mother, Henry. I can see her toes itching inside her black satin slippers.

Christina.

Nonsense! I haven't danced for fifteen years.

Henry.

Come on, mother. Just to show them you know how.

[He seizes her hand and drags her to her feet.]

Christina.

I was just as good a dancer as anybody else in my day.
