SIR TRISTRAM.
Oh, George, George, it's such a pity about his tail!
GEORGIANA.
[_Cheerily._] Not it. You watch his head to-morrow--that'll come in first.
[_HATCHAM, a groom, looks in at the window._
HATCHAM.
Are you there, Sir?
SIR TRISTRAM.
What is it?
HATCHAM.
I jest run round to tell you that Dandy is a feedin' as steady as a baby with a bottle.
GEORGIANA.
Don't you close your eyes all night.
HATCHAM.
Not me, mum. And I've got hold of the constable 'ere, Mr.
Topping--he's going to sit up with me, for company's sake.
SIR TRISTRAM.
The constable?
HATCHAM.
Yes, Sir Tristram. [_Coming forward mysteriously._] Why, bless you and the lady, sir--supposin' the fire at the "Swan" warn't no accident!
GEORGIANA.
Eh?
HATCHAM.
Supposin' it were inciderism--and supposin' our 'orse was the hobject.
SIR TRISTRAM.
Good gracious!
HATCHAM.
That's why I ain't goin' to watch single-handed.
SIR TRISTRAM.
Get back then--get back!
[_SIR TRISTRAM and GEORGIANA pace up and down excitedly._
HATCHAM.
Right, Sir. There's only one mortal fear I've got about our Dandy.
GEORGIANA _and_ SIR TRISTRAM.
What's that?
HATCHAM.
He 'asn't found out about 'is tail yet, sir, and when he does it'll fret him, as sure as my name's Bob Hatcham.
SIR TRISTRAM.
Keep the stable pitch dark--he mayn't notice it.
HATCHAM.
Not to-night, sir, but he's a proud 'orse and what'll he think of 'isself on the 'ill to-morrow? You and me and the lady, sir--it 'ud be different with us, but how's our Dandy to hide his bereavement?
[_HATCHAM goes out of the window with SIR TRISTRAM as THE DEAN enters, followed by BLORE, who carries a lighted lantern._
THE DEAN.
[_Looking reproachfully at GEORGIANA._] You have returned, Georgiana?
GEORGIANA.
Yes, thank ye.
THE DEAN.
And that animal?
GEORGIANA.
In our stables, safe and snug.
