SCENE VII.--_On the Platform at Shuntingbridge._

_Lady Cant._ Ah, _there_ you are, PHILLIPSON! Yes, you can take the

jewel-case; and now you had better go and see after the trunks.

(PHILLIPSON _hurries back to the luggage-van_; SPURRELL _returns._)

Well, Mr.--I always forget names, so shall call you "ANDROMEDA"--have

you found----The omnibus, is it? Very well, take us to it, and we'll get

in.

[_They go outside._

_Undershell_ (_at another part of the platform--to himself_). Where has

Miss MULL disappeared to? Oh, there she is, pointing out her luggage.

What a quantity she travels with! Can't be such a _very_ poor relation.

How graceful and collected she is, and how she orders the porters about!

I really believe I shall enjoy this visit. (_To a porter._) That's

mine--the brown one with a white star. I want it to go to Wyvern

Court--Sir RUPERT CULVERIN'S.

_Porter_ (_shouldering it_). Right, Sir. Follow me, if you please.

[_He disappears with it._

_Und._ (_to himself_). I mustn't leave Miss MULL alone. (_Advancing to

her._) Can I be of any assistance?

_Phillipson._ It's all done now. But you might try and find out how

we're to get to the Court.

[UNDERSHELL _departs; is requested to produce his ticket, and

spends several minutes in searching every pocket but the right

one._
