A PORTRAIT OF F. B.
A peal is that mountain which makes a ring and is ringing. There is no squeak, there is no touch there is no lump, a light bed is left when it is carried away, it has no temper, it has when it has, it has the bent bedspread, it lies like that left not limply and next to lightly and no mixed more. It is so christened when it is there. It has that space to identify. It is the mending of the beam and it is not clear and shows the courage more of the plentiful timber which is not scattered and put together. It is so lightly clad and furs show it. It is so planter. There is no occasion and the copy is not reversed to so little, there is nothing tiny.
Leave the package will the book use the warmer there, sight the sound that has no platter, season all the simple ginger, make a bucket simpler.
Praise the lion and the rat, see the morsels fairly, show the swimming of the rat show the rabbit winning. Bestow the light and chase it there, see the hall is dimmer, see the lightening everywhere see the lightening dimmer. Make no dinner in the morning, make it in the evening, see the same and see it there, see it in the morning. See the time when there is that, see it in the morning, see it all and say the hat, say it every morning, say no more and undertake what is so ridiculous that there is no time to say that and any how what is the abuse of an intention, why should there be etiquette, why is there every lightening, why if the season is the same is there summer, when is there more night than in winter.
Return after the garden, remain after the tea, single out a timepiece, so hatly and so true there is neither more to do. All the time is the past and piece meal is that meal and a little chicken is a liver, and solitude is enough. A little jerk is no occasion, so supremely is there a category.
Very good the place is rough, the bed is silver and the sheets are there, the little slipper is not organized, the pleasure is obtained and actually there is a garden. In union there is withering. In sunlight there is breakfast.
A turn of the table does not mean that cups are there, it means that there is no loneliness and it means that the copy is not extreme when there is a frame. It does not mean any little thing.
A clatter registered has a calming center. That is the outlasting of a sight of all. If it is possible that there is the result then certainly no one would think so. Every one does. There is no sense in such a history. There is no sense at all. Not a bit of broom has the window open, not a bit.
No borrowing or lending and pearls are sweet. They are the same as a little chain, they have the color early, they see the time and they need no wine and they secure the distaste of pink pepper.
Choose running anyway, that is to say that rolling has more distinction, choose a feather boa and range all the plumes and a yellow one is sweeter.
Bake a table, the rest is empty, see the plate first, the first is distributed, see the arrangement the arrangement is in the curling Christmas.
Bet more than sugar, copy no more principally, restrict more decoration, repeat the needle. There is made.
So to see and so to go and so to turn the list around, so to go and so there is the practice of Nileing. Plainer sheets have simple stripes.
A target is by way of marks. The youngest is shaken. The pleasure is rested.
The length is the laughing dater, there is no challenge in mingling later. There is none, the rate is facing a lender.
All along and in the mind there is a plate and there is meal. There is the rate that makes no more. The stairs are not stumbling.

INCLINE.
Clinch, melody, hurry, spoon, special, dumb, cake, forrester. Fine, cane, carpet, incline, spread, gate, light, labor.
BANKING.
Coffee, cough, glass, spoon, white, singing. Choose, selection, visible, lightning, garden, conversation, ink, spending, light space, morning, celebration, invisible, reception, hour, glass, curving, summons, sparkle, suffering the minisection, sanctioning the widening, less than the wireless, more certain. All the change. Any counselling non consuming and split splendor.
Forward and a rapidity and no resemblance no more utterly. Safe light, more safes no more safe for the separation.
M--N H--.
A cook. A cook can see. Pointedly in uniform, exertion in a medium. A cook can see.
Clark which is awful, clark which is shameful, clark and order.
A pin is a plump point and pecking and combined and more much more is in fine.
Rats is, rats is oaken. Robber. Height, age, miles, plaster, pedal, more order.
Bake, a barn has cause and more late oat-cake specially.
Spend rubber, holder and coal, high, careful, in a pointed collar. A hideous south west is always a climb in aged seldom succeeded flavoring untimely, necessity white, hour in a glaze.
Break, sky blue light, obliquely, in a cut carpet, in the pack. A sound.
COO--GE.
Press in the ink and stare and cheese. Pick in the faint and feather and white. White in the plume.
M--N H--.
No noon back. No noon settler, no sun in the slant and carpet utterly surrounded.
No pressed plaster. None.
No pressing pan and pan cake. Not related exactly. Not related.
Matter in the center of single sand and slide in the hut.
No account of gibberish. No sky lark utterly.
Perfect lemon and cutting a central black. Not such clouding. A sugar, a lame sugar, certainly. No sobriety no silver ash tray.
M--N H--.
A co existence with hard suckling and spoons, and spoons. A co-existence with orange supper. A last mending. A begging. Should the assault be exterminated, should it.
M--N H--.
A sound is in the best society. It hums and moves, it throws the hat in no way away and in no way particularly at paving. The meanness is a selection of parts and all of that is no more a handkerchief merely and large.
POINTS.
The exchange which is fanciful and righteous and mingled is in the author mostly in the piece.
CH--N.
A unity is the meantime in a union. A branch case is exactly so anxious and avoided and even then is it in place of blunders, is it in the piece that makes hesitation clear.
The youth and the check board and the all color minutely, this and the chance of the bright flours inward is not in a glance. A check is an instance and more more is indwelling.
PECKED PLACES.
In the unconcise word that is ministered and in the blame extraordinarily the center the whole center is coupled. This is choice.
M--N H--.
Hunger is not hurry and a silence and no more than ever, it is not so exactly and the word used is there.
T--S WH--.
A cut in trusts and in black colors which are not carpets not at all likely carpets and no sucking in substance of the sacking placed only in air outside. This makes a change precious and not odd not odd in place of more use. Not odd in the meaning rapidly.
M--N H--.
The soon estate and established alternately has bright soldiers and peaceable in the rest of the stretch.
J--S B--E.
A regular walking ground is that which shows peeping and soft places between mush and this is most moist in the settled summer. So much wet does gleam and the shutters all the shutters are sober. A piece of cut grass is dangerous dangerous to smelling and to all most.
S--NS.
A dark ground is not colored black mostly and dirtily securely and much exchange is much with a sight and so much to sponge in with speeches to whittle.
J--E B--E.
A tight laundry that is piece meal is in the best astounding. Between, in, on the beside, and no more origin, more in the weed blessed.
M--N H--.
Point, face, canvas, toy, struck off, sense or, weigh coach, soon beak on, so suck in, and an iron.
W--IE C--N.
Point a rose, see a soil, see a saddle, see a monk tree, see a sand tree, trust a cold bit of pickle usefully in an oration.
See the meadow in a meadow light.
The blame is necessarily an interruption perpendicularly.
L--E.
The seam in between is fenceless.
E--E.
The seam in most tight legs are looser and not secure politely.
K--Y.
The separation is a sight.
R--CK.
Chocolate is alarming in old places, chocolate is thunder.
Joining jerked sour green grass is yesterday and tomorrow and alternately.
CH--N.
Kindness is necessary and a spilled iron loan. The best choice is a sucked place readily and much any within the cut spilling.
ALF--.
Jacket in buds and in glasses, jackets entirely in collision.
A triangle is worried with recollected socks and examples.
Peace is in.
No spilling and an argument, no spilling and no spilling is beckoned. A shout is particular.
CH--N.
An heroic countenance justly named and special, special and contained and in eagle.
A mark and a window glass and a splendid chew, altogether a singer.
R--CK.
Secret in a season makes the pining wetter. So much hooding, so best to saw into right pieces the clang and the hush. The held up ocean, the eaten pan that has no cut cake, the same only different clover is the best, is the best.
K--Y.
Caution, caution all, caution the cloud and the oats and the beagle and the clearing and the happy dent and the widow soaking and the climb and the correction.
M--N. H--.
Shut the chamber in the door, so well and so weak and so buttered. Shut the chest out, do not shut it in.
ALF--.
Crime, crime is that way to charge safely, crime is a tooth-pick. It is. It has a credit. Any old stick that has a choking in the way that there is leather shows a mean spirit.
An eye glass, a yellow and neck lace person, a special way to date something, any pleasing register means no readily replaced mice.
L--E.
A set cold egg, a set in together is lively.
ALF--.
A barked out sunshine, a better way to arrange Monday, a cloud of neglected Thursdays, all these are together somehow.
E--E.
A white wedding cake means a white thing and so no more left in the bottle, no more water grows.
A very likely told place is that which is not best mentioned, not the very best.
The incline is in classes in coats in whole classes puzzling peculiarly.
The best way to put it all in is a bite, it is so in every way especially.
S--NS.
Cunning, very cunning. Cute, very cute, critical, not only very critical, critical, critical.
ALF--.
Climbing into the most high piece of prepared furniture is no collection. It is part of the winding old glass.
M--N H--.
A sun in shine, and a so and a so helped angle is the same as the whole right.
THE WEDDING
It is not for nothing that the row placed quantity without grinding. Furnishing is something, individual is pointed. Beetles, only aged sounds are hot, a can in ease and a sponge full, a can in case and a wax well come, a can, a single hole, a wild suggesting wood, a half carpet and a pillow, a pillow increasing, a shirt in a cloud, a dirty distress, a thing grey, a thing thin, a long shout, a wonder, an over piece of cool oil, a sugar can, a shut open accident, a result in a feat, a copper, any copper. A cape coat, in bold shutters, in bold shutters shutting and not changing shutters not changing climaxes and feelings and hold over the switch, the binding of a pet and a revolver, the chosen loan, the owned cake in pieces, the way to swim.
B--B--B.
A language in a bath and in a dressing gown to a precision and a likely union and a single persian and a pressing quite not colored and a gloom not a gloom, and a pin all the same, and a pin not to share and a pin with a stone.
W--IE C--N.
A sudden plunge into a forest and a sudden reserve in a cup of water coldly and a dark sunshine and a squeeze, a length in all.
T--S WH--.
A kind of cataract is a hopeless stroke.
CURLS
A choked part of a loud sound in an old piece of glass is happening, it is solid and all that and not by any means noisy. The best way is just to stay any way and to think. The best way is always lively by a kind of a hoarse whisper. A shutter is only light when there is a joke. This is no use.
ALF--.
A birthday cake is in the morning when there is no use in sleeping. Supposing there is time at nine, the less often there is seven the more use there is in lending a joke. Any nice way to remain is longer than was necessary and the temptation the real temptation never happens, there is a cut away and there is a kind of a mellow cheese that has just begun.
Climbing in and climbing are the ways to change and the only hope is what is there, when it is not a difference between all of it every time.
J--S B--E.
A countenance and order and a bite, really a bit and care and receiving and a vacation and a long half mounted hat box and more silver and more in silver in some and the buttons in a hat and a mild market and goats and not coats Thursday and all health and heels in front grasses and light corn cropping, all this is a toiler and much breading and a kind of a cover is the kind unoccurringly.
KEYS
A wild waist and a simple jerk and bloom and best to come in a way, hut, heart, hide, have, within, a study, hard in, all which, black busts, coal car, gold nose, white wood, curly seize, half in, all which, best plant, cold carpet, in the glass.
KEYS
Why are stains silky and old pieces ruddy and colored angels way built. Why are knuckles calmer and pins chunks and bold in heats frightened. Why are the savage stern and old age coming. Why are the best old seem culpable and a decision, decisive.
CH--N.
Enthusiasm, prudence, cold heart and elegant example, a winding alley and a stair case center, a complete poison slip.
CH--N AND R--CK.
A clatter of curious pin cushions softly gathered by the pan that comes.
Wide in the street makes the double engagement stutter, a lean in the roll, a lean in it.
A lean in when and all came but when it was for and the hindrance and it.
A residence.
CH--N R--CK AND M--N H--.
Be advised that really no insolence is in the bicycle shop. Be advised by it.
Be advised that no belgian is strong, be wonderful.
Bet use that come in.
M--N H-- AND ALF--.
An occasion to sell all cables all towels and all that is what is met, is not met.
A cold hash that means saw dust and hot enough, hot enough heating.
Not cutting furiously.
A single speech is in it, a soil. A single speech. A ham. A cold. A collusion. A count. A cowslip. A tune ditch. A well king. A house to let. A cut out.
B--B--B.
A shudder makes a shake. A bit of green breeze makes a whole green breeze and a breeze is in between. A breeze is canvassed by a week wet and all sold, anything dwelling, in the mist. All the whole steer, all of it.
SHOUT
Best to shut in broken cows with mud and splinters and little pieces of gain and more steel doors a better aches and a spine and a cool school and shouting, early mounting and a best passion and a bliss and a bliss and a bliss. No wide coal gas.

LADIES' VOICES
CURTAIN RAISER
Ladies' voices give pleasure.
The acting two is easily lead. Leading is not in winter. Here the winter is sunny.
Does that surprise you.
Ladies voices together and then she came in.
Very well good night.
Very well good night.
(Mrs. Cardillac.)
That's silver.
You mean the sound.
Yes the sound.
ACT II.
Honest to God Miss Williams I don't mean to say that I was older.
But you were.
Yes I was. I do not excuse myself. I feel that there is no reason for passing an archduke.
You like the word.
You know very well that they all call it their house.
As Christ was to Lazarus so was the founder of the hill to Mahon.
You really mean it.
I do.
ACT III.
Yes Genevieve does not know it. What. That we are seeing Caesar.
Caesar kisses.
Kisses today.
Caesar kisses every day.
Genevieve does not know that it is only in this country that she could speak as she does.
She does speak very well doesn't she. She told them that there was not the slightest intention on the part of her countrymen to eat the fish that was not caught in their country.
In this she was mistaken.
ACT IV.
What are ladies voices.
Do you mean to believe me.
Have you caught the sun.
Dear me have you caught the sun.
Scene II.

Poor Augustine.
WHAT HAPPENED
A FIVE ACT PLAY
ACT ONE
(One.)
Loud and no cataract. Not any nuisance is depressing.
(Five.)
A single sum four and five together and one, not any sun a clear signal and an exchange.
Silence is in blessing and chasing and coincidences being ripe. A simple melancholy clearly precious and on the surface and surrounded and mixed strangely. A vegetable window and clearly most clearly an exchange in parts and complete.
A tiger a rapt and surrounded overcoat securely arranged with spots old enough to be thought useful and witty quite witty in a secret and in a blinding flurry.
Length what is length when silence is so windowful. What is the use of a sore if there is no joint and no toady and no tag and not even an eraser. What is the commonest exchange between more laughing and most. Carelessness is carelessness and a cake well a cake is a powder, it is very likely to be powder, it is very likely to be much worse.
A shutter and only shutter and Christmas, quite Christmas, an only shutter and a target a whole color in every center and shooting real shooting and what can hear, that can hear that which makes such an establishment provided with what is provisionary.
(Two.)
Urgent action is not in graciousness it is not in clocks it is not in water wheels. It is the same so essentially, it is a worry a real worry.
A silence a whole waste of a desert spoon, a whole waste of any little shaving, a whole waste altogether open.
(Two.)
Paralysis why is paralysis a syllable why is it not more lively.
A special sense a very special sense is ludicrous.
(Three.)
Suggesting a sage brush with a turkey and also something abominable is not the only pain there is in so much provoking. There is even more. To begin a lecture is a strange way of taking dirty apple blossoms and is there more use in water, certainly there is if there is going to be fishing, enough water would make desert and even prunes, it would make nothing throw any shade because after all is there not more practical humor in a series of photographs and also in a treacherous scupture.
Any hurry any little hurry has so much subsistence, it has and choosing, it has.
ACT TWO
(Three.)
Four and nobody wounded, five and nobody flourishing, six and nobody talkative, eight and nobody sensible.
One and a left hand lift that is so heavy that there is no way of pronouncing perfectly.
A point of accuracy, a point of a strange stove, a point that is so sober that the reason left is all the chance of swelling.
(The same three.)
A wide oak a wide enough oak, a very wide cake, a lightning cooky, a single wide open and exchanged box filled with the same little sac that shines.
The best the only better and more left footed stranger.
The very kindness there is in all lemons oranges apples pears and potatoes.
(The same three.)
A same frame a sadder portal, a singular gate and a bracketed mischance.
A rich market where there is no memory of more moon than there is everywhere and yet where strangely there is apparel and a whole set.
A connection, a clam cup connection, a survey, a ticket and a return to laying over.
ACT THREE
(Two.)
A cut, a cut is not a slice, what is the occasion for representing a cut and a slice. What is the occasion for all that.
A cut is a slice, a cut is the same slice. The reason that a cut is a slice is that if there is no hurry any time is just as useful.
(Four.)
A cut and a slice is there any question when a cut and a slice are just the same.
A cut and a slice has no particular exchange it has such a strange exception to all that which is different.
A cut and only slice, only a cut and only a slice, the remains of a taste may remain and tasting is accurate.
A cut and an occasion, a slice and a substitute a single hurry and a circumstance that shows that, all this is so reasonable when every thing is clear.
(One.)
All alone with the best reception, all alone with more than the best reception, all alone with a paragraph and something that is worth something, worth almost anything, worth the best example there is of a little occasional archbishop. This which is so clean is precious little when there is no bath water. A long time a very long time there is no use in an obstacle that is original and has a source.
ACT FOUR
(Four and four more.)
A birthday, what is a birthday, a birthday is a speech, it is a second time when there is tobacco, it is only one time when there is poison. It is more than one time when the occasion which shows an occasional sharp separation is unanimous.
A blanket, what is a blanket, a blanket is so speedy that heat much heat is hotter and cooler, very much cooler almost more nearly cooler than at any other time often.
A blame what is a blame, a blame is what arises and cautions each one to be calm and an ocean and a masterpiece.
A clever saucer, what is a clever saucer, a clever saucer is very likely practiced and even has toes, it has tiny things to shake and really if it were not for a delicate blue color would there be any reason for every one to differ.
The objection and the perfect central table, the sorrow in borrowing and the hurry in a nervous feeling, the question is it really a plague, is it really an oleander, is it really saffron in color, the surmountable appetite which shows inclination to be warmer, the safety in a match and the safety in a little piece of splinter, the real reason why cocoa is cheaper, the same use for bread as for any breathing that is softer, the lecture and the surrounding large white soft unequal and spread out sale of more and still less is no better, all this makes one regard in a season, one hat in a curtain that in rising higher, one landing and many many more, and many more many more many many more.
ACT FIVE
(Two.)
A regret a single regret makes a door way. What is a door way, a door way is a photograph.
What is a photograph a photograph is a sight and a sight is always a sight of something. Very likely there is a photograph that gives color if there is then there is that color that does not change any more than it did when there was much more use for photography.

(2). A change a real change is made by a piece, by any piece by a whole mixture of words and likenesses and whole outlines and ranges, a change is a butt and a wagon and an institution, a change is a sweetness and a leaning and a bundle, a change is no touch and buzzing and cruelty, a change is no darkness and swinging and highness, a change is no season and winter and leaving, a change is no stage and blister and column, a change is no black and silver and copper, a change is no jelly and anything proper, a change is not place, a change is not church, a change is not more clad, a change is not more in between when there is that and the change is the kind and the king is the king and the king is the king and the king is the king.

All this makes willows and even then there is no use in dusting not in really redusting, not in really taking everything away. The best excuse for shadows is in the time when white is starched and hair is released and all the old clothes are in the best bag.
_House to house._
A wet hurt and a yellow stain and a high wind and a color stone, a place in and the whole real set all this and each one has a chin. This is not a claim it is a reorganization and a balance and a return.
DO LET US GO AWAY
A PLAY
(Theodore.) I don't think it's my fault I don't think I could do it so unconsciously. I think she brings it in every morning.
(Nicholas.) I used to be hurried, now I imagine I will not be.
(Theodore.) It is not necessary to dance or sing. Let us sing that song. Let us call them their names Nicholas. Theodore we will. We are dishonored. We visit one another and say good-bye.
(Nicholas.) I do not like to be teased. It is so easy to kill mosquitoes but what is the use when we are discouraged by the war. We are so are the Japanese. We will never mention them.
(Theodore.) My principle idea is to eat my meals in peace.
They withdraw. Several people come in. With one of them there is a dog. His name is Polybe. They speak to each other.
100 dollars good-bye good-bye good-bye.
(Jane and Nicholas and Theodore and the lawyer and the children.)

(Arthur.) Dishonored. Never believe in September. Never believe in September in the sense of visions.
(Henry.) I do know the chorus. Individual cases do not bring the war home to me. I suddenly remember and I rest in it. I am ashamed. I have patience and earnest feeling. I am liking the new boat. It is still painted white and is enormously disappointing. Some one has been willing. Oh I am disgusted. This is not the conversation.
(Helen.) The same. I am a settled character. I have visions of welcoming them. They do behave so well and eat so regularly and very well too. They grow almonds in their grounds and I like to eat them green or later. I like to eat them. They are willing. Do not disappoint me.
(Nicholas.) Don't cry.
(Nicholas.) I am looking for a candle. I have it. I am putting it in a Venetian box. Please leave it alone. Don't tease me. I have it. I can place it.
(Theodore.) We are altogether.
Silence and the lights are out. Everybody is laughing. They say (Leave it alone. We like to hear it.) They are very patient. (I cannot spare another handkerchief.)
Anybody can come in. We were surprised to see musicians. There were servants.
(Albert.) Do not repeat it. I tell you I won't have it. I will have a justice of the peace.
(He did.)

(Nicholas.) Anthony. Henriette open the other door and tell mamma. I'll tell mamma.
Mamma coockcoo.
(Pirate.) What is a pirate not a man who kills and pursues boats but the one who has a family, he is the one who comes home today, he expects to be hated. We don't have that feeling.
A scene.
They all laugh.
Please rent a garden for chickens and a turkey.
I wonder if I like dancing.
I can mention a subject which is agreeable so agreeable and exciting and there are three names two of them are almost alike.
We are there.
The Scene
Conversation. I asked him did he like to hear the dog bark. He said he would shoot at him. I said did he like to hear it. We were ashamed of his servants. They talked together loudly. We hoped he would control them. He wrote it. So did they together. Please have peace. Say the date. Please have the Fangturm. Please have peace. Please don't fish so near the shore. Please do not be asked to buy it when it is living. It is not disgusting. All of us are not so pleased.

The part of the house which has windows back and front is cooler.
Coming together.
We move.

The wind.
There is wind every day.
I am so disappointed.
It is difficult to stop now because of annoyances. Now we will tell of the things that were sent together.

Have they come.
Dear friends. Say what you have to say.
Dear Whitehead and Paul and Woolston and Thorne.
Why can't you accomodate yourselves and leave me alone. I don't mean to day or yesterday or by counting. Everybody cannot count. An avenue goes through a city and a street crosses it crosses the city. There is no use in pointing out associations. A great many people can read. Not women. Not in some countries. Not in some countries. Oh yes not in some countries.
Caesar.
Caesar isn't a name that is not used. I have known that a great many people have it.

It is not expected of them and they are not sacrificed. A great many people are sacrificed.
Oh dear yes.
Helen.

Is it an English custom.
It is not an American.
Oh yes I remember you did mention.
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Eaton.
Can you recollect can you remember what day it was that we promised to go into the wind and not take shelter.

We are going in another direction.
To day.
And day after to morrow.
We often spell together.
We like latin.
How goes it.
Frederick and Harriet Beef.
Do be anxious about me.
We are not anxious about me.
No you were told to be so were you not.
We were not advised.
No indeed you were not.
Dear Mr. Colin Bell.
Do be gracious and come again.
Soon.
As soon as you like.
I do not know how to reply.
No you don't and I am so uneasy.

From Bonnets.
Good evening Mrs.
That is not well said.
Dear Gilbert. Remember me to your mother.
All the time.
Dear Mr. Lindo Webb.
I understand why you are not better liked. A great many people expect you to teach them English. You do so and very well. You might be married and have a wife and son. With these helping you to teach you could teach many more people English.
Then we can expect that you will change your place of residence.
We do not expect you to change your coat. No Englishman does. We understand that.
Young Bonnet.
We have been very much annoyed by the impertinence of Mr. Alfred Bonnet.
Little pieces of paper are suddenly burnt.
In believing a shoe maker you believe his father.
I do not believe his father.
Why because he does not dress well.
Dress well dress well.
Dear Mrs. Cook.
Have you any special wishes. Do you want to know about almond leaves and almond roots. Or do you refer to olive roots. Olive trees have large roots. I do not know about almond trees.
The rest of the time was spent in deploring the tempest.
Dear Mrs. Carlock.
I do not know the name. I have often been told that the easiest way to be believed is to examine every one. I have endeavored to do so but without success. Some people believe that they will be killed. By this I mean that they delight in teaching.
Some teach very well. Some teach in the north. Do not stay away.
Sincerely yours and not carelessly.
Walter Winter.
How do you know my name. I speak three languages spanish french and english.
Dear Mr. Cook.
How do you do. Do you mean that you are able to stay.
The rest of the afternoon.
I do understand a red nose.
Not today.
No not to-day. You see the explanation is this.
We will not be pleased altogether.
Mrs. Cook I ask of you do not come again.
Do you mean it.
I cannot understand Mary Rose Palmer.
I can understand explaining things to one another.
We were there and the almond flowers turned to almond leaves.
Dear Mr. Cook.
Come again.
Sincerely yours
Daisy Clement.
_Act 3._
In the country and for the country.
Dear Master. Do not say so.
You mean there is no such address.
I do not mean that I criticize. I do mean that the method used does not agree with me.
Certainly not.
Sincerely yours.
Harmon.
Why do you need a name.
I don't know. I like the point of Inca.
Do not see it everywhere.
I will not.
Dear land.
When I call away I do not mean that I wish the coal to burn. It is not necessary to tell me that the peas will suffer. They certainly will not neither will the pinks.
Thank you for using that word.
Dear me it is windy.
SCENE 2.
Dear Sir. Mr. Cousins told me that they were away when it happened. They recollected being asked if they were well if they had recovered from their emotion. They were also asked if their wives and children were well. They certainly did not know how to say excuse me I do not know who you are. They might have said I would wish to know your name because it would not be right not to be able to give your message and if we do not know your name we cannot say from whom the message came.
This was not done.
Dear Sir. Do not be angry with your government.
Sincerely yours.
William Hague.
SCENE 3.
This was the way to reason. Did he leave after the other came. Was he a sea captain. Was the other one of the same profession although a citizen of another nation. Now as to the word citizen. The use of it differs. Some are inclined to ratify the use of it others prefer to ask what is a citizen. A citizen is one who employing all the uses of his nature cleans the world of adjoining relations. In this way we cannot conquer. We do conquer and I ask how, how do you do.
Dear Sir. When it is necessary to come you will come.
Yes sir.
Dear sir. When it is necessary to be hurried you are not nervous.
Not at all.
Very well.
Dear Sir. Why have you special places for your handkerchiefs.
Because they have been so charmingly embroidered.
You are pleased then.
Yes very pleased indeed.
_Scene 3._
Dear Sir.
Extra dresses.
Oh yes.
See here. Extra gloves.
I do not like the word gloves it has a combination of letters in it that displeases me.
Since when.
Since this evening.
I do not understand your objection.
It is easy to understand if I explain.
Dear Genevieve. Do say where you heard them speak of the decision they had come to not to have masked balls.
I didn't say. They always have masked balls.
Oh so they do.
Yes indeed they do.
There are many of them.
A great many.
Looks.
Looks to me.
Dear Sir. Why have you such splendid olive trees.
Dear Mr. Wilson.
Why have you such plain entrances.
What do you mean.
I mean in Mallorca they do it in such a way that every house has an interesting entrance.
You mean chairs.
Yes I mean chairs.
_Act 4._
_Scene 1._
Dear Sir. Please do not persist.
The one in the house said it.
Dear Lady Cryst what do you say to that again.
I say nothing.
Indeed you are discreet and timid.
Mrs. Seeman has been disappointed. In Saint Katherine.
Yes because of the children.
How do you mean.
One of them was not bewildering and he blasphemed the saints.
Oh no.
No one could be older.
You mean today.
I mean anyday.
Dear Sir. Come to another conclusion.
Yes I will.
Receive me and Cuba. You mean the name. Yes the name. You always liked hearing noises. Not in France. No indeed not in France.
Not in France.
No indeed.
Really you prepare me. I do. Not today. Today. You prepare me today.
_Scene 2._
This is so pleasing.
Dear Sir. How do you pronounce Crowtell.
The land is very near and is seen and nuns fix it.
And the tramway.
Shall I say street car.
Not necessarily here it is more a country road and the electricity is easily had.
Everywhere.
Yes everywhere.
That is such a comfort.
Dear sir. You mean dear Mr. Rossilo do you know my older brother.
_Scene 3._
Charles King. Lindo Webb Lindo Webb.
Dear Charles King. You do not mind that I am in distress. I have no means of satisfying myself whether I am obliged to be careful or not.
Careful of what.
Of what I say in public.
Certainly not.
No.
Certainly not.
Dear Mr. Lindo Webb.
Come again will you.
A great many mountains are higher than any on the island.
Do you believe in lessons.
Of course I do.
So does Mrs. Gilbert.
_Scene 4._
I am enjoying it.
Dear Mr. Lindo Webb. Why do you wish to win.
In the more readily seen places there is no muttering. You mean no quarreling. I mean neither one or the other.
Oh I understand you.
By that I mean that I am poor.
I see what you mean.
Dear Woodrow. This is a name.
What does anybody mean by interesting.
That is not a word that has that position.
You mean not nicely.
I mean that I am English.
Dear Mr. Henry. What have you been meaning to do.
_Scene 5._
Dear Sir. Why do you speak.
Dear Sir. Please me.
How can I be called.
Do you wish to go to market.
Dear Sir. Do you wish me to go to market.
Dear Sir. Do you wish me to have that made.
How do you mean.
_Scene 6._
Dear Sir. Remember that when you have no further requests to make you must not blame me.
Dear Sir. I know you do not object to smoke.
Dear Mrs. Lindo Webb How can you break your teeth.
By falling down in the street.
You mean now when the pavement is so dark.
Naturally.
It would not have happened otherwise.
This is because of the necessary condition of lighting.
We all suffer from that.
SCENE 7.
Do you remember Charles Mark. Figs. Especially mentioned figs.
Dear Sir. Will you come today and wear three diamond rings and an officers suit. You have a perfect right to wear an officer's suit. You are a major.
Dear Mrs. English. Do you like a different country.
Do you mean higher up in the hills.
Not so very much higher.
_Act 5._
_Scene 1._
This is the last time we will use seasoning.
You mean you like it better cold.
No don't be foolish.
Dear Sir. Is there much wisdom in searching for asphodels.
Not if you already know what they are.
We do know now.
Then there is no use in trying to accustom yourself to their beauty. But we don't find it beautiful. I too have failed to find beauty in them.
This is not surprising as they do not grow prettily.
They were a great disappointment to us.
_Scene 2._
We all are able to see I don't care a bit about Lena. We are all able to say I don't care a bit about Lena.
Dear Mrs. Landor. How can you cease to be troubled about the rest of the winter. How can you cease to be troubled about the rest of the summer and the beginning of the winter.
Dear Sir. Every evening the snow falls. Red. Yes and so do the asphodels. Asphodel isn't red. I know it it looks so.
Dear friend. Can you give me any pleasure.
Yesterday afternoon was a holiday. You mean a festival. I mean a day of the country.
Do you mean that you understand the country.
No indeed.
_Scene 3._
Dear friends. Have patience.
_Scene 4._
This has ended very well.
You mean meeting one another.
Yes and asking us to remain here.
You mean that a great many people were troubled.
Not a great many people.
Some are very happy.
So are others.
We all have wishes.
Expressed wishes.
Dear Sir. Will you come again and eat ham.
Not in this country.
Fish.
Not in this country.
TURKEY AND BONES AND EATING AND WE LIKED IT
A PLAY
He was very restless. He does not like to stand while he picks flowers. He does not smell flowers. He has a reasonable liking for herbs. He likes their smell. He is not able to see storms. He can see anything running. He has been able to be praised.
SCENE I.
Polybe and seats.
Straw seats which are so well made that they resemble stools. They are all of straw and thick. They are made with two handles.
Genevieve and cotton.
I do not like cotton drawers. I prefer wool or linen. I admit that linen is damp. Wool is warm. I believe I prefer wool.
Minorca and dogs.
I like a dog which is easily understood as I have never had the habit of going out except on Sunday. Now I go out every day.
Anthony and coal.
I believe that coal is better than wood. If coal is good it burns longer. In any case it is very difficult to get here.
Felix and a letter.
I do not wish to reply to a telegram, not because I find it difficult to explain in it that I wished to see you. I did wish to see you.
Mr. Clement.
It gives me great pleasure to meet you. I am feeling well today and I see that you are enjoying the mild weather. It will continue so. I hope you will be pleased. I will present myself to you in saying that I am certain that you are deriving pleasure from your winter. I am certainly eager.
William.
He is too difficult. I mean he is too difficult. I don't believe you understand me yet. He is too difficult.
SCENE II.
She would not insist. We were to have a saddle of mutton. We were served first with a not distasteful supply of vegetables. There was ham in it and pork. These had boiling and they were a sauce. Let me tell you about the german.
A little girl.
I can tell blue when I see it.
A German.
Look.
Italians.
We expect to go home.
When
When the cigarettes come. I know these were stale. If I go to the war I will be readily excused because I am lame. You have every reason to be lame. You are a waiter but the out of door life may do you good.
Genevieve.
I could not leave the house as I was expecting the reparation of a mattress.
You did not find it necessary to leave the house.
Not in the morning.
William and Mary.
William is William and he does not use any precaution. He is not very adroit.
She. Will you drink wine.
I do.
I know that but will you take any now.
I don't mind the taste of it.
This is really not wine. It is a concoction of brown sugar and water and fermented juice. I call it wine it is a drink. I did not know it was not wine.
The count.
Why does the count wish for this house. He wishes for it because it has all conveniences. It really hasn't but it is better situated than the one he has now.
Raymond and Jenny.
I do like a Spanish name a Spanish name always begins with a V.
We went together.
We went together and we did not go to the Opera. The opera that was being given was Boris Goudonoff.
SCENE III.
A whole collection of stamps. A family meeting.
Where did you get it.
I got it when I saw the envelope.
Where did you see it.
Don't hold it.
Don't spoil it.
Let me see it.
Thanks.
Thanks so much.
I thank you.
I thank you for your kindness.
Please make a collection of flowers.
Collecting flowers is not a misery. You have to carry something a handkerchief will do and more than that is perfectly selfish.
We are not perfectly selfish.
William. Do be persevering.
Mrs. Clement. I am. I do not leave my house.
Genevieve. Don't you leave your house.
Mr. and Mrs. Clement. We do.
Maud. The hills would be better than water. We like water.
Mrs. Clement. Everybody likes water.
Maud. And fish.
Genevieve. I do not care for the fish here.
William. Radishes.
Maud. Radishes are strong.
Mrs. Clement. I am glad to have seen you.
SCENE IV.
An interlude.
If you were a Breton and read a book and understood Spanish would you be richer than a frenchman who talked in a field. If a man talked in a field and told about papers and contraband and laughed would you see a resemblance in him to a Swiss. I would. This is what happened. He says it is very necesssary to be young to be young and unmarried and then you can not do as you please. You can not go where you please. He believed that it was alright. I am certain that he understood talking. He also laughed. I am not convinced that ploughing is safe. Ploughing is done with a plough and under a tree. Dogs bark, little dogs bark the horse and sometimes a mule and sometimes a donkey. The people say leave it to me. I will not.
SCENE V.
Farmer.
Listen to me.
I will not.
Then do not listen to me.
I heard you when you said it. I like to see goats feed.
And so do I like to see them lay the tracks.
They are laying them for the electrical railroad.
Sarah. I don't like him. I don't like his ways. I don't like it and I will not say it. I will do as you do and you do it so nicely. I will do as you do and then we were right. We were right to ask him to come in. He will not come in. I will not go out. We will not stay there. We will say yes certainly, we are not very busy. Yes please see that you have the things you want. You have not been given them. Don't fail to come again when you need them.
A Farmer.
A fisherman.
We don't like to look at a wall.
A Fisherman and a farmer.
They both believe in fish. Fish is a fertilizer. It cannot be found in the bay. You do not have to go out far. You have to have a great many boats.
An English mother.
You make me quite afraid of dogs.
SCENE VI.
A water faucet.
We were very likely to meet one another. None of us have running water. The count Rangle had.
We were all fond of winter. We said we liked summer. The trouble with the summer is that it is too hot. You see I am convinced.
Harold.
Harold is your name. I thought it was Martin.
It is Martin or Mark.
Thank you.
You speak English.
Yes certainly.
And french.
Very nicely.
And Hindustani.
My mother does.
I supposed she did.
We had never thought about it.
SCENE VII.
ACT II.
We are deserted. We are left alone. They are going to Paris. We stay here.
Minorca. And there is such a nice view.
A dinner.
Tomorrow.
Every day.
Yes every day.
In the morning.
We will ride. We will come home. Yes we will. Don't bother. Yes you need to we understand. We will meet you at half past one old time. You need never be drunk. It is an older word.
Do be clear.
Golly Moses it is damp out here.
Any little piece of paper makes a wind.
Yes yes.
Anthony and Cleopatra.
Do you like him. I must go and see the workingmen.
Do you like them they are giving our son a knife.
Whom does he resemble. The son resembles his mother. Don't say it.
Why not.
Because the father does not prefer to hear it. He prefers to hear that the son resembles him.
The son resembles him but he looks like his mother.
They wish him to have every advantage.
Change of scene.
In walking home we did not go that way. I had my reason for not going that way. I did not care about losing a button. As a matter of fact I didn't lose it.
Winnie and William.
How are they today.
They are going away.
We are going away.
I am sorry.
We are not sorry.
No I cannot say whether we are not sorry.
We are not sorry.
Another climate.
The ponds are frozen. We did not read that today.
Mike wrote it.
We were very careful to look at the water.
It was not cold here.
There are a great many times when there is rain.
Oh yes.
All right.
He.
He came in.
What is the name of it.
I cannot say it.
Do not say it.
I do not care to look at any one.
I do.
Then please yourself.
I do not understand electricity.
I do.
I do not understand hail.
I can explain it.
I do not care for history.
I can read it.
I do not care about individual wishes.
I understand it.
Plenty of people do love another.
She.
Loud voices are attractive. When two people talk together they have to talk louder.
I wish you would not talk about summer. Say anything you please but don't say that you are not to stay here altogether. I do not want it known.
Alright. We will stay here altogether.
That is not my wish. We will stay here for the winter. The summer climate is not possible.
I quite agree with you.
Do you.
Yes I do.
No I can't say that.
What.
You know it is the words of a song.
I know what you mean.
Of course you do.
This is the end of this month.
Next month will be shorter.
Why.
Because it is December.
I understand that.
Of course you do.
They have gone away.
William. I am drinking.
Maria. I am so sorry to go.
Henrietta. I cannot understand departure because if you are french you attend mass.
Sarah. I quite agree with you I think it unforgiveable.
Mrs. Clement. And they are.
Mr. Penfield. We are very often forgetful.
Many of us think of things.
How many times have you been defeated.
Sleeping.
Turning.
Turning and sleeping.
What did you say. I said I am closing the door. Very well.
Henrietta. John and I are bewildered.
So are William and Monica.
Henrietta. The difference between us is that we know what we want.
Oh do you.
Henrietta knows.
Henrietta. Why are you shutting the door.
Because it is the habit. It really isn't necessary.
Then why do you do it.
Henrietta. Every one knows William and Monica.
Yes and every one knows how they started.
How did they start.
By quarreling with their landlord.
Indeed yes.
It was not a comfortable house in summer.
They knew this.
No they didn't.
You are quite right they didn't.
SCENE IX.
Go on.
Go on and on.
The day I was settled down to making a fire I found that it came very easily. All I had to do was to be here when the wood came. We had not ordered any water.
Tonight.
Mrs. Chambers. When did you leave him.
I didn't leave you.
I know you didn't then and I am vainly wishing for a postman.
What did you wish of him.
I wish to tell him that I don't want my packages open.
How do you know where they are open.
I know that they are not opened here I mean in this house.
I understand what you mean.
SCENE X.
A mother. Do not listen to a mass.
Another mother. I have left my children at home.
A son. I have no engagement on Wednesday.
A niece. I go out frequently.
Do you.
Oh yes.
Do you go out with your aunt.
We go out together.
Mrs. Hitchcock. I do not understand wishes.
A large time is not a sentence we use.
That I understood.
Two Englishmen have searched for a Polish flag. They found it not the flag of the nation the flag of war and commerce.
Thank you so much.
SCENE XI.
The life of the turkey.
Who is cruel.
Not the little boy he lifts it in his arms.
No the other one. He is a guardian. They are all placing their confidence in them.
The life of the turkies here exist after Christmas. We were surprised to see that. So many of them were eaten that we supposed there were no more.
The life of the turkey.
In church.
Here in church.
Nonsense I will not say I prefer suckling pig.
I don't know but that I do.
I like grouse.
To eat.
And also.
Chicken liver.
Arthur Llynn. Come and rest.
Helen Lewis. We are waiting for the letter carrier.
Is he coming today.
I don't know.
SCENE XII.
Come in Come in
Mary and Susan. Shall we come again.
Andrew. Yes that's the name.
What I want you to know is the origin of it all.
The one is a soldier, the other an admiral the third a gypsy.
We were not pleased.
Captain Rose. You must pronounce after me. A fire in the kitchen not against the outer wall.
Yes we know that.
I have been convinced.
Don't you like it's appearance.
Very much.
I am not satisfied.
With what with it's appearance.
I expected it to be white.
Oh that can be arranged afterward.
Yes I see.
You are going.
May we stay a little while.
SCENE XIII.
It was rarely neglected. Come in Herbert.
I recognise the name Herbert.
Come in.
We are going out.
Do you like walking.
Very much.
Do you like the sound of the waves.
Yes certainly.
Do you like them near or at distance.
The effect is different far and near.
Yes so it is.
Which do you prefer.
I have no choice.
This evening we will have to be cold.
But not at all.
Yes indeed and I mean to speak to my landlord about it.
Good-night.
SCENE XIV.
Clarence for a change.
If you have as vacation one day a month and you take it every six months you have six days vacation. In those six days you can visit your family in the country or you can work in your garden or you can make changes in the position of the wall you can do all this and then there will be six days in six months. If you are not able to be about this will be counted off of the days.
The french language.
Who is it.
What was I saying.
You were saying that you were able to be at home.
Yes I am able to be at home.
Then this is what troubles you.
No it does not trouble me. It makes me realize that I do not wish to leave.
Of course you do not wish to leave.
Yes that was understood.
Did you say that you listened.
Were you speaking what did you wish.
I wish not to be disturbed.
Oh yes we will leave in the spring.
I am not satisfied with what is right.
SCENE XV.
Come again.
Mr. Picard. He was dedicated to him.
Was he.
Do you feel happy.
All the time.
Do not be
Neglected.
I was.
And I saw
That
There are mountains.
And the water.
We are really not interested in the country if there is no water.
You mean salt water.
Yes.
Do not dispute about it.
It is unlucky to wish any one happy new year before the new year.
SCENE XVI.
Do you want me to go on.
Yes I want you to go on.
Where shall we walk tomorrow.
Tonight you mean.
Not not this evening.
Yes I understand.
Where shall we walk tomorrow.
To Fernville.
No not to Fernville.
To Arbuthnot.
No not to Arbuthnot.
In the park.
No not the park.
Well then let's walk along by the water.
No let's not go that way.
Then let us walk to Wintersdale.
Yes let's walk to Wintersdale.
Very well then.
Where are you going this afternoon.
We are going down town.
Oh yes you have a good deal to do.
Yes we have a good deal to do.
Will you go in the morning.
As you like.
SCENE XVII.
Come happily.
Yes we come very happily.
There is very good reason for suspecting Mr. Bournville.
Is there.
Yes very good reason.
What is the reason.
The real reason is that he has been incorrect.
How has he been incorrect.
He has been altogether incorrect as to the necessity of having water.
Do you mean to say that he said it would be difficult to have water.
He said so.
But it hasn't been
No indeed.
That may be because the season is different.
That may be the reason. In any case he is pardonable.
In any case he is pardonable.
You agree with me.
Yes I agree with you.
Do you always agree with me.
You know I always agree with you.
Then that is satisfactory.
To me.
And to me too.
FINIS.
EVERY AFTERNOON
A DIALOGUE
I get up.
So do you get up.
We are pleased with each other.
Why are you.
Because we are hopeful.
Have you any reason to be.
We have reason to be.
What is it.
I am not prepared to say.
Is there any change.
Naturally.
I know what you mean.
I consider that it is not necessary for me to teach languages.
It would be foolish of you to.
It would here.
It would anywhere.
I do not care about Peru.
I hope you do.
Do I begin this.
Yes you began this.
Of course we did.
Yes indeed we did.
When will we speak of another.
Not today I assure you.
Yes certainly you mentioned it.
We mentioned everything.
To another.
I do not wish reasons.
You mean you are taught early.
That is exactly what I mean.
And I feel the same.
You feel it to be the same.
Don't tempt him.
Do not tempt him.
This evening there was no question of temptation he was not the least interested.
Neither was she.
Of course she wasn't.
It's really not necessary to ask her.
I found it necessary.
You did
Certainly.
And when have you leisure.
Reading and knitting.
Reading or knitting.
Reading or knitting.
Yes reading or knitting.
In the evening.
Actively first.
He was very settled.
Where was he settled.
In Marseilles.
I cannot understand words.
Cannot you.
You are so easily deceived you don't ask what do they decide what are they to decide.
There is no reason.
No there is no reason.
Between meals.
Do you really sew.
He was so necessary to me.
We are equally pleased.
Come and stay.
Do so.
Do you mean to be rude.
Did he.
I ask you why.
Tomorrow.
Yes tomorrow.
Every afternoon.
A dialogue.
What did you do with your dog.
We sent him into the country.
Was he a trouble.
Not at all but we thought he would be better off there.
Yes it isn't right to keep a large dog in the city.
Yes I agree with you.
Yes
Coming.
Yes certainly.
Do be quick.
Not in breathing.
No you know you don't mind.
We said yes.
Come ahead.
That sounded like an animal.
Were you expecting something.
I don't know.
Don't you know about it at all.
You know I don't believe it.
She did.
Well they are different
I am not very careful.
Mention that again.
Here.
Not here.
Don't receive wood.
Don't receive wood.
Well we went and found it.
Tomorrow.
Come tomorrow.
Come tomorrow.
Yes we said yes. Come tomorrow.
Coming very well. Don't be irritable. Don't say you haven't been told. You know I want a telegram. Why. Because emperors didn't.
I don't remember that.
I don't care for a long time.
For a long time to pass away.
Why not.
Because I like him.
That's what she said.
We said.
We will gladly come Saturday.
She will go.
Oh yes she will.
What is a conversation.
We can all sing.
A great many people come in.
A great many people come in.
Why do the days pass so quickly.
Because we are very happy.
Yes that's so.
That's it.
That is it.
Who cares for daisies.
Do you hear me.
Yes I can hear you.
Very well then explain.
That I care for daisies.
That we care for daisies.
Come in come in.
Yes and I will not cry.
No indeed.
We will picnic.
Oh yes.
We are very happy.
Very happy.
And content.
And content.
We will go and hear Tito Ruffo.
Here.
Yes here.
Oh yes I remember about that. He is to be here.
To begin with what did we buy.
Scolding.
If you remember you will remember other things that frighten you.
Will I.
Yes and there is no necessity the explanation is not in your walking first of walking last of walking beside me the only reason that there is plenty of room is that I choose it.
Then we will say that it will rain.
The other day there was bright moonlight.
Not here.
No not here but on the whole there is more moonlight than in Brittany.
Come again.
Come in again.
Coming again.
Coming in again.
Come again.
I say I do understand calling.
Calling him.
Yes Polybe.
Come.
Come.
Come again and bring a book.
We meet him so often.
We meant to see about it. You mean the light.
I am proud of her. You have every reason to be and she takes it so naturally.
It is better that it is her hands.
Yes of course.
Nothing can pay for that.
Republics are so ungrateful.
Do you desire to appear here.
Why of course in that sense.
I do not know those words.
It is really wretched.
You do see it.
I don't see it that way.
No you wouldn't you would prefer the words well and tall.
Say it to me.
You know I never wished to be blamed.
An effort to eat quickly.
Did you promise him.
Did I promise him the woods.
The woods.
Not now.
You mean not now.

A PLAY
Do you mean to please me.
I do.
Do you have any doubt of the value of food and water.
I have not.
Can you recollect any example of easy repetition.
I can and I can mention it. I can explain how by twice repeating you change the meaning you actually change the meaning. This makes it more interesting. If we attach it to a person we make for realization.
Do you really mean you have no preferences.
I can not visualise the condition.
By that time I am free to say that we have made offers of finding the right name for everything.
Do you know that you are careful.
Do you see the state of your purse.
Have you been told that I will give you more if you ask for it.
Or do you not care to receive a favor.
Certainly you wish to be helped.
Let me help you.
Do not refuse me.
You can regulate your expenditure.
It is unreasonable.
Not because you do it.
Not because you do not do it.
Standard pieces.
Eating and drinking.
Can you forget Minerva.
I make the mistake.
I mean Monica.
Can you forget Monica.
Or Polybe.
ACT II.
A dazzling dress. We dazzle altogether.
PLEASE DO NOT SUFFER
A PLAY
Genevieve, Mrs. Marchand and Count Daisy Wrangel.
(Mrs. Marchand.) Where was she born and with whom did she go to school. Did she know the Marquise of Bowers then or did she not. Did she come to know her in Italy. Did she learn English in Morocco. She has never been to England nor did she go to school in Florence. She lived in the house with the friends of the count Berny and as such she knew them and she knew him. She went to eat an Arab dinner.
How did she come to know the people she has known. I do not understand it.
With whom did she go to school. We are not sure. When did she first know about Morocco. Where did she hear English.
She heard English spoken to children.
(Count Daisy Wrangel.) He speaks English very well. He has an impediment in his speech. He likes cauliflower and green peas. He does not find an old woman satisfactory as a cook. He wishes for his Italian. It is too expensive to bring her down. He does like dogs. He once had eight. They were black poodles. They were living in a garden on a duchess' estate. He trained them to be very willing and he has pictures of them all. He has often written a book. He writes about art sometimes. He also paints a little. He has a friend who paints a picture every morning and paints a picture every afternoon. He is not disagreeable. He did not come with him. He asked to see the dog he thought he had grown.
(Genevieve.) She believes in Fraconville. What is a thunder storm. This is my history. I worked at a cafe in Rennes. Before that I was instructed by a woman who knew knitting and everything. My mother and father worked at gardening. I was ruined by a butcher. I am not particularly fond of children. My child is a girl and is still a little one. She is living in an invaded district but is now in Avignon. I had a coat made for her but it did not fit her very well and now I am sending the money so that it will be made at Verdun. I am not necessarily a very happy woman. Every one is willing. I like knitting and I like to buy provision. Yes I enjoy the capital. There is plenty of meat here. I do not care for the variety. I prefer veal to chicken. I prefer mutton. I understand that it is difficult to have anything.
(Mrs. Marchand.) I do not write often. I say I will mention it if a man pays attention to a woman and so I can and I can say that I have not written. I will do as I like. I find that my baby is very healthy. I hope he will not talk the language spoken here but I can not say this to him. He is too young. He is not walking. If the Dardenelles are not taken perhaps they will open. I hear myself speaking. I have an orange tree that is open. The sun comes in. For ten days during ten days it rains and then until December we will have good weather. There is no fire in the house. I do not like to look at that map. Will you excuse me while I give my baby his luncheon.
(Count Daisy Wrangel.) It is the same name as an island. We were from Courland and some are Russians and some are Prussians and some are Swedes. None are Lithuanians. Mr. Berenson is a Lithuanian. I have a Danish friend who has been married four times. His last wife is a singer. She is a married woman. His first wife has been married to four different men. She has been a good friend to each one of them. They do say this. I have no pleasure in my stay on the Island because I do not eat anything. I would like to have something.
(Genevieve.) The count was here. He wanted to see the dog and he said he would like to see him. He was not very well. He had been suffering. He did not say that his friend would come with him. He said he thought not. I am often told that the french are everything. I ask do you believe that the french are winning. I believe that the french are winning. Do you need butter for cooking.
(Mrs. Marchand.) Let me give you a peach that is softer. Do you like this one. We will come again for an evening. This is the shortest way. Yes I like walking. We say very little when we are worrying. Let us go away. We cannot because my husband cannot go away.
Nellie Mildred and Carrie.
(Nellie.) Handwriting is not curving. It is not a disappointment or a service it is frequently prepossessing.
(Mildred.) It is copied. Six handkerchiefs. Two of one kind four of another.
(Carrie.) She backhands that means she takes good care of herself.
(Mrs. Marchand.) She does not know any of them. She knows Mr. Rothschild.
(Genevieve.) What is the use of being tranquil when this house is built for the winter. The winter here is warm.
(Count Daisy Wrangel.) He will not stay longer than November.
William and Mary.
(William.) He is fond of reading and drinking. He drinks wine. He also drinks siphon. This is water with sterilised water in it. He drinks it with and also without lemon. He is very fond of walking. He does not prefer resting. He is a painter by profession.
(Mary.) Mary is winning. She has a brother who is fighting. He has made a ring for her. She has a mother and another brother. We were asked does she like swimming. She has not a knowledge of swimming.
(Mrs Marchand.) She is a large woman and rather walking. She walks along. We met her and Mr. Marchand who were walking. We said it was too cold for walking.
(The English consul.) All right. The dog is too closely muzzled. He can't breathe properly.
(Count Daisy Wrangel.) Why do you all speak to me. Let me tell about it. In coming into the first office I first saw one young lady. I told her she was looking very well. I then went out and came back and went up to the other lady. I said how do you do I was sorry not to see you the other day. You were out when I called. My friend is a bear. I thought he would have come with me to call. I will come soon again.
(Mrs. Marchand.) I don't know him very well that is to say my husband has pointed him out to me and I knew he was here. It will not be a disappointment to us.
(Genevieve.) I prefer a basket to a mesh. It is the one souvenir that I will have. I do not wish to say that I am not pleased. I do not like to spend 35 dollars over again all over again. It is exact enough.
(Count Daisy Wrangel.) There is a great deal to write in a newspaper.
(Michael.) Michael was the son of Daniel. He moved into a house. He had been living at a hotel a whole winter. He has steam heat and light. We have not seen photographs of the place.
(Jane.) I have five children the youngest is three years old. Many of them died.
(Felix.) What kind of wool do you prefer black or in color, heavy or thin and for what use do you desire it. Do you also wish knitting needles and what thickness.
(Alice.) What did we have to eat today. We had very young pork. It is very delicious. I have never eaten it better.
(Genevieve.) I like to choose my meat.
(Mrs. Marchand.) I understand everything better. I like to have to think and look at maps. I hate to see so much black. I do not mean by that that I am sullen. I am not that. I am delighted with surroundings.
(Genevieve.) I wish to spend a little money on some things. I am waiting for the boat. I have nothing to do except sleep. Really not.
(Mrs. Marchand.) I understand Spanish.
(Count Daisy Wrangel.) To please him and to please me I do not dine at home.
(Harry Francis.) It hangs out in the rain and it is not dry what shall I put on underneath.
Anything you like.
(Roger Henry.) Why do you prefer a picture of a boat.
Because it is useful.
(Mrs. Marchand.) I am so disappointed in the morning.
We are all of us disappointed.
(Mrs. Marchand.) I did not meet you to-day.
Yes you did.
Every man swallowing. What.
(Mrs. Marchand.) I told you that you had every reason to expect warm weather and now it's cold.
It won't be cold long I hope. These are equinoxial storms. They last from seven to ten days.
(The English Consul.) He has had some trying experiences but he has a pleasant home. He has a view of the sea and also of the woods. It is natural that he has chosen that house.
(Mrs. Marchand.) I have met her. She is very pleasant. I did not think she was his wife. I thought she was his daughter.
So did we all.
HE SAID IT
MONOLOGUE
Spoken.
In English.
Always spoken.
Between them.
Why do you say yesterday especially.
Why do you say by special appointment is it a mistake is it a great mistake. This I know. What are and beside all there is a desire for white handkerchiefs.
You shall have it.
This is what we give. We give it with a hat. Dear me. A great many people are precious. Are they. I do not ask the question.
This is my fright.
Oh dear Oh dear I thought the fire was out.
I consider it very healthy to eat sugared figs not pressed figs I do not care for pressed figs.
I consider it necessary to eat sugared prunes and an apple. I have felt it to be the only advice I could give. It has been successful. I really feel great satisfaction in the results. No one can say that short hair is unbecoming.
What are the obligations of maternity. Reading and sleeping. Also copying. Yes thank you.
Are you pleased.
I am not pleased.
I am delighted.
It has been a very fruitful evening.
It is not very likely she was pleased.
Pleasures of the chase. Do you like flags. I believe in painting them. I also inquire as to their origin. Are they simple in color or have they various designs. Nobody can be as pleased as I am can be more pleased than I am. I am further delighted with the social relation I have established with a great many acquaintances. I began by intending to change to change the method of branching. I do not find it distinguished. Then I found that by choosing and asking other people to supply I could be satisfied. This is history.
Did he see he would kill a rabbit. Many rabbits are troublesome. I do not care to eat the one he was to give us.
You do not care to eat rabbit.
Who is our well-wisher. I see clearly that you have made a mistake. You have answered me defiantly. I have not.
Large spaces of time are filled by my telling how to sing.
How do you sing.
Some sing so well they laugh.
Others sing so well that they are roses.
I was very pleased with embroidery very very pleased with embroidery.
Indeed.
Indeed I think alone.
And make lists.
And make lists.
I do not make lists.
It is no trouble to make lists.
I feel an infinite satisfaction in the thought that I have stopped worrying.
Indeed you never worry.
Who can be willing to leave an American boat.
No one.
This is what I said.
I said it to an Englishman.
Governed. Do be governed.
I speak of this very kindly. I do not tell him about darkness.
Or anybody.
Many people fear distraction and divert themselves with discussion. Not
