Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Cabman and the Lady, Vol. 4 Vivian (outside R. 2 E.). Adolphus! Adolph. My wife´s voice. I haven´t a moment to lose. Vivian. I´ll bring the coffee in a moment, dear. Adolph. Never mind the coffee. I´m going now. (Crossing over to halltree L.) Vivian (outside). Wait a moment and I´ll lock the front door after you. Adolph. No need. I´m going out the back gate. (Taking cane and hat from halltree.) I´m going out for the day. I shant be back for dinner, and in all probability won´t be home till morning. (Aside.) Now for cab number seven. (He exits hurriedly through center door, going R. Vivian enters from door R. 2 E.) Vivian (Peevishly). Won´t be home till morning. (Vexed.) Pretty carrying on indeed. Since he has taken to writing novels in his spare moments, he sees nothing but melodrama in the commonest happenings of everyday life, and for the last three days he has been so absorbed in a new plot that he has scarcely uttered a single word. Now I am to be left alone for the entire day. (Walks angrily to and fro.) But I´ll not endure it any longer. I´ll have a separation! (Bell rings off L. 2 E. She goes to window L. 4 E. and looks out.) A cab. Who can this be, I wonder. It´s rather early for a visit. (Opens door L. 2 E.) Pat enters doors L. 2 E. speaking off as he enters. Pat. Who, there, Napoleon! Good mornin´, mum. Vivian (surprised). Well, sir; what is it? Pat (looking about furtively). I beg your pardon, mum, air ye alone? Vivian (surprised). Yes, quite alone. Pat (approaching mysteriously). Sure ye see, mum, it´s aboot this. (Holds up a handsome red silk muffler.) Vivian (aside). Why, it´s his muffler, the one I sent him Christmas. He must have left it in the cab yesterday. (She goes to Pat and looks the muffler over as though trying to recall it.) About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
