[_Looking into the distance._] I think I see the dear d.u.c.h.ess.

FRAYNE.

[_Alertly._] Where?

MRS. EDEN.

There.

 

FRAYNE.

I have the honour of knowing her Grace slightly.

MRS. EDEN.

[_Moving away._] What a sweet woman!

FRAYNE.

[_Following her._] Alluring!

[_They disappear through the trees as_ MURIEL, _coming from below the hedge, joins_ SOPHY.

SOPHY.

Darling!

MURIEL.

What is it, Sophy?

SOPHY.

Lord Quex and this--this d.u.c.h.ess--they know each other very well, of course?

MURIEL.

They are old acquaintances, I understand.

SOPHY.

Ah!

MURIEL.

Why do you ask?

SOPHY.

I've just seen them together, talking.

MURIEL.

Talking? why not?

SOPHY.

Yes, but how?

MURIEL.

How?

SOPHY.

I'll tell you. After you went indoors to dress, I took off my rings and put them on that table. [_Looking away rather guiltily._] Rings fidget me, this hot weather--don't they you? Well, just as I'd finished with Mrs. Jack, it suddenly struck me--my rings!--and I hurried back to fetch them. When I got here, I came across Lord Quex and the d.u.c.h.ess.

MURIEL.

[_Calmly._] Yes?

SOPHY.

I stooped down behind that hedge there.

MURIEL.

You did not!

SOPHY.

Oh, I suppose you consider it mean!

MURIEL.

Despicable!

SOPHY.

Despicable, is it! I don't care! My goodness, I'd do the shabbiest thing a woman could do to save you from him!

MURIEL.

[_Peering among the trees._] Hush, hush, hus.h.!.+

SOPHY.

[_On the verge of tears._] Perhaps you fancy I'm mean from choice?
