THE FIRST ACT
Scene : The lounge and winter garden of the Grand
Babylon Hotel. There are palms and flowers in
profusion, and numbers of little tables, surrounded
each by two or three chairs. Several people are seated,
drinking coffee and liqueurs. At the back a flight of
steps leads to the restaurant, separated from the
winter gardtn by a leaded glass partition and swing-
ing doors. In the restaurant a band is playing.
Two or three waiters in uniform are standing about or
serving customer’s.
Ambrose Holland and Lady Wanley come out from
the restaurant. He is a well-dressed, elegant
man of five and thirty. She is a handsome widow
of uncertain age.
Lady Wanley.
[Pausing at the foot of the steps.] Where shall we
sit?
Holland.
Let us choose a retired corner where we can gossip
in peace.
Lady Wanley.
Nonsense ! I didn’t come to the Grand Babylon in
order to blush unseen. I caught sight of a number
of people during luncheon, who I’m quite determined
shall catch sight of me now.
Holland.
I was sufficiently gallant to have eyes for you only.
Lady Wanley.
[Pointing to a table,] Shall we sit there ?
Holland.
D’you mind sitting on the other side ? The waiter’s
rather a pal of mine.
Lady Wanley.
[Sitting down,] What queer friends you have.
Holland.
Waiter.
A Waiter.
[Coming forward,] Your waiter will be here in one
minute, sir.
Holland.
[To Lady Wanley.] You see, I’ve knocked about
in so many places that I have friends in every city in
the world and every rank in life.
