Do have some more champagne, Alston!
gpt
Not another drop, Mrs. Charmian, thank, you! I must think of my voice.
human
Well, then--
gpt
Dare you smoke, Alston?
human
I've got to, whether I dare or not. But --his kind and honest eyes went from Charmian to Claude--
gpt
I think, if you don't mind, I'll smoke on the way home. I'll go right away now if you won't think it unfriendly. The fact is I'm a bit tired, and I bet you both are, too. These things take it out of one, unless one is made of cast-iron like Crayford, or steel like Mulworth, or whipcord like Jimber. You must both want a good long rest after all you've been through over here in God's own country, eh?
human
Well, Mrs. Charmian--
gpt
We've brought it off. We've done our best. Now we can only leave it to the critics and the public.
human
Good-night! I'll come round to-morrow. Good-night.
gpt
Good-night!
human
Good-night, dear Alston,
