Cast

The scene is the kitchen of a dwelling-house in Hyacinth Court, which is a slum. Over the wall at the end is a heavy forge. It is half-past nine in the evening, and there is a temporary quiet. Tom Dixon, a young forge hand, is reading by the fire, waiting to go on night shift. Strangely enough, it is a volume of the works of Shelley. He is reading aloud.
