As a foreigner, as at one time a divinity of the green-room, brought up on out-of-date compliments, on gallantries a la Dorat, she did not understand it, and would feel terrified in the presence of the wild exaggerations, the paradoxes of these Parisians refined by the liberty of the studio.
Florian's is at once an Exchange, a green-room, a newspaper office, a club, a confessional, and it is so well adapted to the needs of the place that some Venetian women never know what their husband's business may be, for, if they have a letter to write, they go to write it there.
She purred, she frolicked, she pounced on an imaginary mouse, caught it, tossed it up in the air, and went through all the manoeuvres of a veritable grimalkin. When the curtain fell, amidst roars of laughter and applause, the first syllable cat was whispered from mouth to mouth, among the audience. At this moment the hated Blinks arrived in the green-room. "What are you up to? Acting charades eh?
My parents would not allow me to go into the green-room, where they thought my attention would be distracted from my business, and where I might occasionally meet with undesirable associates.
The notable and notorious men there, the bar-loungers whose life gave them a look of almost pathetic imbecility, the women of fashion and the too fashionable ladies of the chorus had, at least temporarily, accepted some common denominator.

Bracegirdle: "Playing at tric-trac; so can't play the fool in your green-room to-night. On this, a musical ringing laugh was heard from outside the door, where the pseudo Bracegirdle was washing the gray from her hair, and the wrinkles from her face ah! I wish I could do it as easily! and the little bit of sticking-plaster from her front tooth. "Why, it is the Irish jade!" roared Cibber.

I well remember Mr. Browning's telling me how, when he returned to the green-room, on that critical day, he drove his hat more firmly on to his head, and said to Macready, 'I beg pardon, sir, but you have given the part to Mr.
