The Duke's favorite is holding out her "List of Promotions" entered upon a tremendous roll of papers, which seems to be endless. "I have a small list of promotions, which I wish to be filled up immediately, my dearest!" To which modest request this weak-minded Samson is readily giving his assent: "It shall be done, my darling!"
