Some people fancy a place all to themselves for this sort of thing  where nobody else is about. We ourselves do. But the stage peasant is more sociably inclined. Give him the village green, just outside the public house, or the square on market day to do his spooning in.

th talking as hard as they can go. They have been listening quite enough to other people: you can't expect them to listen to each other. But the conversation under such conditions must be very trying. And then they flirt so sweetly! so idyllicly! It has been our privilege to see real peasantry flirt, and it has always struck us as a singularly solid and substantial affair--makes one think, somehow, of a steam-roller flirting with a cow--but on the stage it is so sylph-like. She has short skirts, and her stockings are so much tidier and better fitting than these things are in real peasant life, and she is arch and coy. She turns away from him and laughs--such a silvery laugh. And he is ruddy and curly haired and has on such a beautiful waistcoat! how can she help but love him? And he is so tender and devoted and holds her by the waist; and she slips round and comes up the other side. Oh, it is so bewitching! The stage peasantry like to do their love-making as much in public as possible. WATCH ANY TWO OF THEM THEY ARE BOTH TALKING AS HARD AS THEY CAN GO THEY HAVE BEEN LISTENING QUITE ENOUGH TO OTHER PEOPLE YOU CAN'T EXPECT THEM TO LISTEN TO EACH OTHER BUT THE CONVERSATION UNDER SUCH CONDITIONS MUST BE VERY TRYING AND THEY FLIRT SO SWEETLY SO IDYLLICALLY IT HAS BEEN OUR PRIVILEGE TO SEE REAL PEASANTRY FLIRT AND IT HAS ALWAYS STRUCK US AS A SINGLY SOLID AND SUBSTANTIAL AFFAIR MAKES ONE THINK SOMEHOW OF A STEAM ROLLER FLIRTING WITH A COW BUT ON THE STAGE IT IS SO SYLPH LIKE SHE HAS SHORT SKIRTS AND HER STOCKINGS ARE SO MUCH TIDIER AND BETTER FITTING THAN THESE THINGS IN REAL PEASANT LIFE AND SHE IS ARCH AND COY SHE TURNS AWAY FROM HIM AND LAUGHS SUCH A SILVERY LAUGH AND HE IS RUDDY AND CURLY HEAD AND HAS ON HER SUCH BEAUTIFUL WAISTCOAT HOW CAN SHE HELP AND LOVE HIM AND HE IS SO TENDER AND DEVOTED AND HOLDS HER BY THE WAIST AND SHE SLIPS ROUND AND COMES UP TO THE OTHER SIDE OH IT'S SO BEWITCHING THE STAGE PEASANTRY LIKE TO DO THEIR LOVE MAKING AS MUCH IN PUBLIC AS POSSIBLE
