[Lavinia Putney attempts to guess Mr. Clare's eye color while working on a wax figure's eyes]

Lavinia Putney:
What color are they? No, let me guess.

John Clare:
Miss...

Lavinia Putney:
Blue? No, you're no blue-eyed boy. No green, I sense. I'll say brown. Feathery brown like an owl's wing.

John Clare:
No, not brown.

Lavinia Putney:
Well, tell me.

John Clare:
They're... yellow.

Lavinia Putney:
Well, that makes a change! Not a lemon yellow, I hope. That would be alarming. More of a turmeric, would you say?

John Clare:
[Mr. Clare smiles] Yes.
