One of this work's characters is disgusted with another character who is vulgar enough to play a musical instrument, though the final stage instruction informs us that Randall "at last succeeds in keeping the home fires burning on his flute."  Another character is said to have sold his soul to the devil in Zanzibar and to have married a black witch in the West Indies.  That character drinks three bottles of rum a day and strives to attain the seventh degree of concentration.  He has a servant, Nancy Guiness, who calls everyone "ducky," and his guests include a woman who believes herself in love with Marcus Darnley.  That character has two daughters, Lady Ariadne Utterwood and Hesione Hushabye, both of whom also visit the title structure.
