The walls are white woodwork,
framing in old tapestries of deep foliage design, with here and there
a flaming flamingo; white furniture with old, green brocade cushions.
The room is in the purest Louis XVI. The noon sunlight streams through
a window on the left. On the opposite side is a door to the hall. At
back double doors open into a corridor which leads to the ballroom.
At left centre are double doors to the front hall. A great, luxurious
sofa is at the left, with chairs sociably near it, and on the other
side of the room a table has chairs grouped about it. On floral small
table are books and objets d'art, and everywhere there is a profusion
of white roses and maidenhair fern._
_In the stage directions Left and Right mean Left and Right of actor,
as he faces audience._
_Three smart-looking SERVANTS are peering through the crack of the
folding door, their backs to the audience. The pretty, slender MAID
is on a chair. The elderly BUTLER dignifiedly stands on the floor.
The plump, overfed little HOUSEMAID is kneeling so as to see beneath
the head of the BUTLER.
