While I picture to you what will happen in the morning. (SOPHY: In the morning?) In a few hours' time. In the first place, you will be called in your room. You won't be there. (SOPHY: Won't I!) No. You won't be there. A little later my man will come to my room. I sha'n't be there. At about the same hour, her Grace will require your attendance. Where will you be? She will then, naturally, desire to return to her own apartments. You are intelligent enough, I fancy, to imagine the rest. (After a brief pause, she breaks into a peal of soft, derisive laughter.) I am deeply flattered by your enjoyment of the prospect.
