SIR WALTER
Ah, Anne! Good, you are here.
Where else would she be? She never goes anywhere.
SIR WALTER
All the better. Anne, we have just received an impromptu invitation from Lady Dalrymple to call on her tonight at Laura Place. The Dowager Viscountess is at home with a bad cold, but she wishes us to visit her anyway.
You can wear your dotted muslin, with the thin ribbon. I thought about bringing you some new gloves, but then realized they suited me better.
ANNE
I do. Regretfully I cannot accompany you to Laura Place this evening.
Well.
SIR WALTER
Who is that? He is quite the well-looking fellow, is he not?
A very fine man indeed. More air than one often sees in Bath.
MRS. CLAY
Is he not an acquaintance of Anne’s?
Why would he be acquainted with Anne?
SIR WALTER
Lady Dalrymple, it’s Lady Dalrymple!
Anne! Anne, it’s Lady Dalrymple!
