I love an election. I’ve never had such a time in my life. I’ve enjoyed every minute of these three weeks. I hope Teddie’ll go into Parliament.

Lady Francis.

[Raising her eyebrows.] On four hundred a year?

Anne.

Oh, George will give us a rise. He says Teddie’s awfully useful. George is good, isn’t he?

Catherine.

I’m glad you’re so happy, darling.

Anne.

[Abruptly, after a little, quick look at her.] You’re not angry with us, Kate?

Catherine.
