Vivian is a girl that everyone should adore. I can just see Vivian going barefoot, because the darling bossy cows, with the tender eyes, should not be sacrificed for human comforts.

Some said it was the Blessed Virgin, others...
...glad to retain the beautiful, the charming lisa. Hers was the last entrance onto the stage; she mixed Albert a drink of bicarbonate of soda, while he sat playing the piano, and she handed it to him with a look at once teasing, gay, quizzical and tender; as he turned to take his medicine, his eyebrows rose with gratitude and the curtain fell. There are those plays so delicately, so truly funny that one forgets to laugh until a perhaps clumsy joke, inserted for no other purpose, ignites the fuse of amusement that a superlative dialog has laid.
