DR. STEINHART. Great idea! [_To_ MISS GODESBY.] Did you get a lot of jolly presents? MISS GODESBY. Not half bad, especially two fine French bulls! [_All are laughing and talking together._ BLANCHE. What did you get, Mr. Warden? WARDEN. Three copies of "David Harum," two umbrellas, and a cigar case too short for my cigars. MISS GODESBY. Give it to me for cigarettes. WARDEN. It's too long for cigarettes. Then I had something that's either a mouchoir or a handkerchief case, or for neckties, or shaving papers, or something or other. TROTTER. Yes, I know, I got one of those, too. DR. STEINHART. So did I! BLANCHE. I must start the women; we are coming back here to arrange a surprise for you men. [_She nods her head in signal to_ STERLING, _and rises. All rise._ STERLING. One moment please. One toast on Christmas night! Ned, give us a toast. ALL THE WOMEN. [_But not in unison._] Oh, yes! A toast! [_Ad lib._] WARDEN. [_Holding up his glass._] Here's to those whom we love! And to those who love us! And to those who love those whom we love And to those who love those who love us! ALL THE MEN. [_Not in unison._] Good! Bravo! Bully toast! [_Ad lib._] [_Every one drinks._ BLANCHE. One more toast, Dick. [_To the others._] Christmas Day is our boy's birthday. RUTH. Surely! a toast to Richard! STERLING. Long life to Master Sterling, the best boy in the world, and to all his good friends at this table. THE MEN. Hear! Hear! [_All the women speak their next speeches at the same time._
