I = Izzy M = Marion MC = Mr Clare R = Retty T = Tess

I: We can't get there without walking through it.

M: That's that then, I'm going back to bed.

I: Marion, get back here, now.

MC: Good morning ladies, and how lovely you all look. Now I see the problem. Perhaps I can be of assistance. Who's first?

I: First for what, sir?

MC: I'll carry you across the water.

And don't go away.

R: I'm supposed to put my arms around his neck and put my face against his and feel his arms around me and put my face against his … I don't think I can.

T: There's nothing in it, Retty.

R: That's what you say. I think I'm going to burst.

M: Thank you, Mr Clare.

MC: Retty, a nice easy one this time.

I: I'm going to kiss him. I don't care what happens, I'm going to kiss him. You wouldn't mind would you if I tried? I know that you're his favourite and all.

T: Izzy.

I: But I've got to try, haven't I? I might never get another chance.

How do I look? Do I look pretty? Tell me, Tess.

T: Very pretty, Iz.

I: Here I go. Wish me luck.

MC: What are you doing?

T: I think I can climb along the bank after all.

MC: Tess, no!

T: Really I'm quite all right.

MC: Tess!

T: And you must be so tired.

MC: I've undergone three quarters of the labour just for this moment.

T: They are much better women than I, all of them.

MC: Not to me.

T: I'm not too heavy?

MC: Compared to Marion you're like gossamer; you're a billow warmed by the sun.

T: That's very pretty, I seem like that to you.

MC: I didn't expect an event like this today.

T: Nor I. The water came up so quickly.

MC: That's not what I meant, at all.

Ladies.

M: Come on, we'll be late.

I: I was sure he was going to kiss me.
