The breakfast-table would then be pushed out of the way and the entrance rehearsed . Dick seemed never to weary , and the run was practised over and over again . Coming home from the theatre at night , it was always a question of this effect and that effect ; of whether Leslie might not have scored a point if she had accentuated the lifting of her skirt in the famous song . That was , as Dick declared , the ` number of grip ' ; and often , at two o'clock in the morning , just as she was getting into bed , Kate , in her chemise , would begin to sing : ' `` Look at me here ! look at me there ! Criticize me everywhere ! From head to feet I am most sweet , And most perfect and complete . '' '
