Act II

David
Yes. Would you like me to make love to you?
Myra
Rising.
Really⁠—I wish you wouldn’t say things like that.
David
I’ve knocked you off your plate⁠—I’ll look away for a minute while you climb on to it again.
He does so.
Myra
Laughing affectedly.
This is wonderful!
She sits down again.
David
Turning.
That’s right. Now then⁠—
Myra
Now then, what?
David
You’re adorable⁠—you’re magnificent⁠—you’re tawny⁠—
Myra
I’m not tawny.
David
Don’t argue.
Myra
This is sheer affectation.
