(Barely glancing at the flowers.) 'Ow kind of 'im! Sech a waste o' money too! They do go off so quick. (ROPER: Where is Lil?) She's settin' to a risin' young artist in Fitzroy Street-- Claude Morgan. She won't be 'ome till past five. So tirin' for 'er. (ROPER: Never heard of Morgan.) No, nor anybody else. That's what I tell 'er. Why waste your time givin' settin's to a risin' young artist when the big men 'ud go down on their 'ands and knees to do you? But that's Lil all over. She's the best-natured girl in the world, and so she gets imposed on all round.
