Act I - 08 Act II - 42 Act III - 118 Act IV - 167 Act V - 191 CLARA (throwing herself discontentedly into the Elizabethan chair) Oh, it’s all right, Mamma, quite right. People will think we never go anywhere or see anybody if you are so old-fashioned. MRS EYNSFORD HILL. I daresay I am very old-fashioned; but I do hope you wont begin using that expression, Clara. I have got accustomed to hear you talking about men as rotters, and calling everything filthy and beastly; though I do think it horrible and unladylike. But this last is really too much. Dont you think so, Colonel Pickering? PICKERING Dont ask me. Ive been away in India for several years; and manners have changed so much that I sometimes dont know whether I’m at a respectable dinner-table or in a ship’s forecastle. CLARA It’s all a matter of habit. Theres no right or wrong in it. Nobody means anything by it. And it’s so quaint, and gives such Act I - 08 Act II - 42 Act III - 118 Act IV - 167 Act V - 191 |
