male · comedic · 48 sec

Don't be alarmed; it's a precious deal easier than getting up! besides I know every inch of the road; so good bye, cousin, and in my way to my friend the superintendent, I'll knock up all the neighbours and tell them to scour the country; we'll find your fifteen thousand pounds again for you. (gets quite out and gradually disappears) So don't give way--keep up as I do. Oh, lud. (suddenly disappears altogether--loud noise of broken glass heard) (MRS. S: He's fallen! Cousin! cousin!) (from without) It's all right. I've only tumbled into a cucumber frame or something of the sort. I can have the bits of glass taken out of me when I get back.
