RL [still nursing her sense of injury] Aint no call to meddle with me, he aint. THE BYSTANDER [to her] Of course he aint. Dont you stand it from him. [To the note taker] See here: what call have you to know about people what never offered to meddle with you? Wheres your warrant? SEVERAL BYSTANDERS [encouraged by this seeming point of law] Yes: wheres your warrant? THE FLOWER GIRL Let him say what he likes. I dont want to have no truck with him. THE BYSTANDER You take us for dirt under your feet, dont you? Catch you taking liberties with a gentleman! THE SARCASTIC BYSTANDER Yes: tell h i m where he come from if you want to go fortune-telling. THE NOTE TAKER Cheltenham, Harrow, Cambridge, and India. THE GENTLEMAN Quite right. [Great laughter. Reaction in the note taker's favor. Exclamations of He knows all about it. Told him proper. Hear him tell the toff where he come from? etc.].

THE MOTHER [advancing between her daughter and the note taker] How very curious! I was brought up in Largelady Park, near Epsom. THE NOTE TAKER [uproariously amused] Ha! ha! What a devil of a name! Excuse me. [To the daughter] You want a cab, do you? THE DAUGHTER Dont dare speak to me. THE MOTHER Oh, please, please Clara. [Her daughter repudiates her with an angry shrug and retires haughtily.] We should be so grateful to you, sir, if you found us a cab. [The note taker produces a whistle]. Oh, thank you. [She joins her daughter].
The note taker blows a piercing blast. THE SARCASTIC BYSTANDER There! I knowed he was a plain-clothes copper. THE BYSTANDER That aint a police whistle: thats a sporting whistle. THE FLOWER GIRL [still preoccupied with her wounded feelings] Hes no right to take away my character. My character is the same to me as any lady's. THE NOTE TAKER I dont know whether youve noticed it; but the rain stopped about two minutes ago. THE BYSTANDER So it has. Why didnt you say so before? and us losing our time listening to your silliness. [He walks off towards the Strand]. THE SARCASTI上一页 [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] 下一页
