[Trying on the bonnet.] Let me tell you it's the first time I have worn it—the very first time.

Tesman.

And a very nice bonnet it is too—quite a beauty!

Miss Tesman.

Oh, it's no such great things, George. [Looks around her.] My parasol? Ah, here. [Takes it.] For this is mine too—[mutters]—not Berta's.

Tesman.

Hedda.

Very handsome indeed.

Tesman.

Yes, isn't it? Eh? But Auntie, take a good look at Hedda before you go! See how handsome she is!

Miss Tesman.

Oh, my dear boy, there's nothing new in that. Hedda was always lovely.

Tesman.

[Following.] Yes, but have you noticed what splendid condition she is in? How she has filled out on the journey?

Hedda.

[Crossing the room.] Oh, do be quiet!
