THE CAMBERLEY TRIANGLE

(It is an evening of 1919 in KATE'S drawing-room. She is expecting
him, and the Curtain goes up as he is announced.)
MAID. Mr. Cyril Norwood.
(He comes in.)
NORWOOD (for the MAID'S benefit, but you may be sure she knows). Ah,
good evening, Mrs. Camberley!
KATE. Good evening!
(They shake hands. NORWOOD is sleek and prosperous, in a morning coat
with a white slip to his waistcoat. He is good-looking in rather an
obvious way with rather an obvious moustache. Most women like him--at
least, so he will tell you.)
NORWOOD (as soon as they are alone). My darling!
KATE. Cyril!
(He takes her hands and kisses them. He would kiss her face, but she
is not quite ready for this.)
NORWOOD. You let me yesterday. Why mayn't I kiss you to-day?
KATE. Not just yet, dear.
