Thanks so much when will it be done.
(Paul.) I will do it tomorrow.
(Nicholas.) Saturday does not include Sunday.
Doesn't it.
(Nicholas.) Not in Palma in Mallorca.
You mean that they will all go away.
(Nicholas.) Not right away but they won't stay.
Very well. Good-bye.
(May Mary.) Yes I hear.
When the girl went away we said they had umbrellas. When the rest went
away they said good-bye.
Let us wait and see.
We waited for them and they passed. They were all of them old. They had
loud voices. We want to know in a neutral country have they servants.
Please be able to finish.
(Nicholas.) Mamma Coockcoo.
(Joseph.) Dolores Dolores.
(Jane.) Jenny give me the keys. Oh yes. I am waiting.
(Nicholas.) Follow me.
(The lawyer.) Stay to play.
The End.
Yes I have a brother.
Sitting at a cafe.
FOR THE COUNTRY ENTIRELY
A PLAY IN LETTERS
Almond trees in the hill. We saw them to-day.
Dear Mrs. Steele.
I like to ask you questions. Do you believe that it is necessary to
worship individuality. We do.
Mrs. Henry Watterson.
Of course I have heard.
Dear Sir. Of course I have heard.
They didn't leave the book.
Dear Sir.
They didn't leave the book.
Yes Yes.
I know what I hear. Yes sir.
Dear Sir.
I heard her hurrying.
We all did.
Good night.
Isabel Furness.
I like their names.
Anthony Rosello.
It's easy to name a street like that.
It is.
With a view
Of trees and a hill.
Yes sir.
Herbert.
Dear Herbert.
Come again.
William.
William Cook.
Chapter 2.
Dear Sir. A play.
A great many people ask me in misery.
Have they come.
Dear friends. Say what you have to say.
Dear Whitehead and Paul and Woolston and Thorne.
Why can't you accomodate yourselves and leave me alone. I don't mean to
day or yesterday or by counting. Everybody cannot count. An avenue goes
through a city and a street crosses it crosses the city. There is no use
in pointing out associations. A great many people can read. Not women.
Not in some countries. Not in some countries. Oh yes not in some
countries.
Caesar.
Caesar isn't a name that is not used. I have known that a great many
people have it.
Henry Caesar. A class is full and teaching is difficult. They do not
understand. Who does not understand. The Barcelonese.
Color. A country and a cup where they sell water.
Everybody sells water. In this country. Everybody sells water in this
country. Is it a hot country. It is not and water is plentiful. Then I
do not understand you. You need not question me.
Dear girl.
Grandfathers can not make sacrifices for their children.
It is not expected of them and they are not sacrificed. A great many
people are sacrificed.
Oh dear yes.
Helen.
CHAPTER 3.
Why do you play in letters.
Because we are English.
Is it an English custom.
It is not an American.
Oh yes I remember you did mention.
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Eaton.
Can you recollect can you remember what day it was that we promised to
go into the wind and not take shelter.
