Coyle Well?
Asa Well, I want you to keep that appointment. Coyle Keep it? Asa Yes, and that's all I do want you to keep of his, and instead of saying you have come to foreclose the mortgage, I want you to say, you have found the release which proves the mortgage to have been paid off. Coyle I accept. Is that all? Asa Not quite. Then I want you to pay off the execution debts. Coyle What, I pay Sir Edward's debts? Asa Yes, with Sir Edward's money that stuck to your fingers naturally while passing through your hands. Coyle [To Murcott.] Traitor! Mur He knows all, Mr. Coyle. Coyle Is there anything more! Asa yes, I want you to apologize to Miss Florence Trenchard, for having the darned impudence to propose for her hand. Coyle What more? |
