JOHN. I'm as hungry as a shark. We'll nibble together. CYNTHIA. Well, all I can say is, I feel that of all the improprieties I ever committed this--this-- JOHN. This takes the claret, eh? Oh, Lord, how happy I am! CYNTHIA. Now don't say that! You'll make me cry more. _She wipes her eyes._ JOHN _takes out the wedding ring from his pocket; he lifts a wine-glass, drops the ring into it and offers her the glass._ JOHN. Cynthia! CYNTHIA. [_Looking at it and wiping her eyes._] What is it? JOHN. Benedictine! CYNTHIA. Why, you know I never take it. JOHN. Take this one for my sake. CYNTHIA. That's not benedictine. [_With gentle curiosity._] What is it? JOHN. [_Slides the ring out of the glass and puts his arm about_ CYNTHIA. _He slips the ring on to her finger and, as he kisses her hand, says_:] Your wedding ring!
