is of an agreeable medium brown, but not particularly abundant. She is dressed in a tasteful, somewhat loose-fitting morning gown.
Miss Tesman.
[Going to meet Hedda.] Good morning, my dear Hedda! Good morning, and a hearty welcome.
Hedda.
[Holds out her hand.] Good morning, dear Miss Tesman! So early a call! That is kind of you.
Miss Tesman.
[With some embarrassment.] Well—has the bride slept well in her new home?
Hedda.
Oh yes, thanks. Passably.
Tesman.
[Laughing.] Passably! Come, that's good, Hedda! You were sleeping like a stone when I got up.
Hedda.
Fortunately. Of course one has always to accustom one's self to new surroundings, Miss Tesman—little by little. [Looking towards the left.] Oh—there the servant has gone and opened the veranda door, and let in a whole flood of sunshine.
Miss Tesman.
[Going towards the door.] Well, then we will shut it.
