Text

START: Prams! Prams! Prams - in the supermarket! . . .

[They all freeze. She is evidently out of control in a world of her own fears. She speaks quickly and strangely.]

All those hideous wire prams full of babies and bottles - corn-flakes over there, is all they say - and then they leave you to yourself.

[... … …]

END:

Yea, verily, I say unto thee - there stall be an end of gasoline! An end to cigarette puffing and jostling with hips...Keep off ... Keep off! Keep off!
