Jemima would not think it right to keepup her present intimacy with me if I
were married to you.
May I present the President of the Board of Trade,
MrBoanerges? My dear Vanhattan, what the devil is the matter? Thank God my
self-consciousness is something nobler than vulgar conceit in havingdone
something.
And you will condescend to fight with Proteus for power? What I am
goingto tell you is authentic from the United States of America to theBritish
Empire.
You shall hear from me after the Cabinet meets. I have not time to
attend to theeighteenth century and the prodigal son at this moment.
And really
I hardly know how to answer him.
You are only trying to make me late toannoy my
wife.
I look forward to presenting myself in court dress soon.
Well see it
shifted to Melbourne or Montreal orJohannesburg first.
He will make anadmirable
constitutional monarch. Nottonight: you must not sit up waiting for a
message.
But I reckoned without your Majestyscharacter.
You have some exciting
news for us, apparently. The name you pretended to invent specially for me,
theonly women in the world for you.
Proteus, with Amanda on his arm, stops in
the doorway on seeingthem. God help England if she had no Scots to think for
her!
But can I helppeople seeing what is as plain as the sun in the
heavens?
All men are fools and moralcowards when you come to know them.
What
you need to make you a real king is a real queen.
We have a civilized culture
which is peculiar toourselves. Am I to be favored with the advice of my
ministers on thatsubject? But I dont dislike your sort: I understandit, being a
little in that line myself.
