JAMES But how could I get father to fortune off the girls? MAIRE How? By wakening up. You have the right. When we have the right, we ought to be able to do anything we like with the people around us. JAMES I give in to the truth of that, Maire. MAIRE What will come of you giving in to the truth of it? But sure you ought to remember, Anne. ANNE _(taking James's hand)_ James has the good way with people. MAIRE Well, I suppose it will come out right for you in the end. You are both very deserving. _(She rises)_ But some time or another we have to take things into our own hands. JAMES Indeed that's true, Maire. _Maire goes to back_. ANNE _(holding James's hand)_ Did you make any more songs, James? |
