"Oh, Mona, do you mean that?" he says. But Mona, who is very justly incensed, declines to answer him with civility. "I never heard such awful language," says Rodney.

Naturally an early riser, Mona slips noiselessly from her bed, lest she shall wake Geoffrey,—who is still sleeping the sleep of the just,—and, going into his dressing-room, jumps into his bath, leaving hers for him. But Mickey is not to be outdone. "An' there's the pigs, miss," he begins again, presently.
