  1. Darry: To do this things properly you'd want to be wearing shorts. Right; now keep in touch with the rhythm, or you'll mar everything. Start her off, and stretch yourself down. [Barry starts the gramophone, runs and lies down opposite to Darry, so that the soles of their feet are only a few inches apart]. Gramophone [ very rapidly]. Lie on back; hands behind the head; feet together-are you ready? Bend right knee; draw it into the waistline towards the chest; breathe out-commence!

  2. Gramophone. Lie on back; hands behind the head; feet together- are you ready? Bend the right knee; draw it into the waistline, towards the chest-commence! [Darry is too slow, or the gramophone is too quick, for he can't keep up with the time of the music. When he finds that he is behind the time of the music, Darry increases his speed by partial performance of the movements, and so gets into touch with the time, but presently, blowing and panting, he is out of time again by a beat or two.

  3. Darry: [angrily]. Buzz off, buzz off, then, an' I'll show you how the work of a house is done. Done quietly: done with sped, 'n without a whisper of fuss in its doing. Buss off, if you want to, 'n I'll show you 'n all your gender how the work of a house is done!. [Lizzie violently pulls off a jazz-coloured overall she is wearing, and flings it on the floor]. Lizzie: [furiously]. Put that on you, 'n do what remains to be done about the house, while I go an' mow the meadow. Get into it, 'n show the world an' your poor wife the wonders you can do when you're under a woman's overall.
