You be quiet, George. Fancy me dancing with my figure!

Appleby.

I don't deny you're plump, but I never did like a scrag. Perhaps it's the last chance we shall ever have.

Mrs. Appleby.

What would they say at home if they ever come to hear you and me had been dancing? Really, George, I'm surprised at you.

Arthur.

[Amused.] I won't tell.

Appleby.

You know you want to, Fanny. You're only afraid they'll laugh. Come on, or else I shall dance by myself.

Mrs. Appleby.
