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. (Hedda Gabler; act 1, pp. 19-20)
