VICKEY. And that's the way you're going to live! With cast-off furniture. (_Moves to window_, L.) MAGGIE. Aye. In two cellars in Oldfield Road. VICKEY _and_ ALICE. A cellar! MAGGIE. _Two_ of 'em, Alice. One to live and work in and the other to sleep in. ALICE. Well, it 'ud not suit me. VICKEY. Nor me. MAGGIE. It suits me fine. And when me and Will are richer than the lot of you together, it'll be a grand satisfaction to look back and think about how we were when we began. (WILL _appears_ R. _with two crippled chairs and begins to cross the shop_.) VICKEY (_stopping him_). Just a minute, Will. (_She examines the chairs_.) These chairs are not so bad. MAGGIE. You can sit on one to-night and see. VICKEY. You know, mended up, those chairs would do very well for my kitchen when I'm wed. |
