Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Water That Has Passed: A Play in One Act Scene: Library of a house on Riverside Drive. Folding doors at rear covered by portieres and opening into a dining-room in which a table set for dinner can be seen when the doors are open. Doors L. U. E. and L. 1 E. Windows R. U. E. and R. 1 E. Log fire in open fireplace between the windows R. Bookshelves against walls. Table L. C. At rise, front door bell rings. Enter Higgins from folding doors and exit leisurely L. U. E., re-entering with Tearle, who is in evening dress. Tearle. Higgins, you are a shameless flatterer. If you had met me on the street, I don´t believe you would have known me from Adam. You think you recognized me; but then you expected me, you see. Well, let that pass; but when you have the nerve to tell me that I have not changed - good heavens! Higgins, do you realize that it is fifteen years since I left New York, and that I had turned my twenty-fifth birthday before I sailed. Add fifteen to twenty-five and then dare to tell me that I have not changed. It is you, Higgins, who have discovered the secret of perpetual - middle age. I am glad to find you here and well, Higgins. Higgins. Thank you, sir. Tearle. Am I late for dinner? The steamer docked less than an hour ago. I had to dress on board. Higgins. Dinner will be served whenever you please, sir. Tearle. But how about the ladies? Have they dined? Higgins. Mrs. Ferguson and the young ladies are at Palm Beach, sir. Tearle. My aunt and cousins away? Higgins. They decided last Friday, sir, to go down for a couple of weeks. Tearle. Then my aunt did not receive the message I sent her by wireless from the boat?
