[Without moving.] D’you want me to help you?

Norah.

No.... It would remind me of home.

Hornby.

I suppose I shall have to stick it out at least a year, unless I can humbug the mater into sending me enough money to get home with.

Norah.

She won’t send you a penny if she’s wise.

Hornby.

Wouldn’t you chuck it if you could?
