FAIN. For loving you? MRS. MAR. I loathe the name of love after such usage; and next to the guilt with which you would asperse me, I scorn you most. Farewell. FAIN. Nay, we must not part thus. MRS. MAR. Let me go. FAIN. Come, I'm sorry. MRS. MAR. I care not. Let me go. Break my hands, do--I'd leave 'em to get loose. FAIN. I would not hurt you for the world. Have I no other hold to keep you here? MRS. MAR. Well, I have deserved it all. FAIN. You know I love you. MRS. MAR. Poor dissembling! Oh, that--well, it is not yet - FAIN. What? What is it not? What is it not yet? It is not yet too late - MRS. MAR. No, it is not yet too late--I have that comfort. |
