Mr. Punch and Mephisto at head and foot of the table both worked hard to make things go. The latter gave us a rendition of \"Casey Jones,\" which I suppose was all the rage when he was young. But Abdullah and Zuleika would not join in the chorus. Moreover, Harlequin soon tired of the sailor lassie, and started talking to Anne Boleyn across the table, whereupon Jackie became enraged again. That party was doomed from the moment when Harlequin had first raised his mask.
