To paradise!...
OLDHAM
To paradise.... Take me with you!
FAUST
My friend,
It is not possible. I do foresee
Some perils to whose touch I would subject
None save myself.
OLDHAM
And what care I for them!
Faust—on my word, when I climbed up your stair
This second time, it was to say good-bye
To you forever, being quite resolved
To end my choking loneliness and loathing
With a quick shot to-night. Take me, or I
Shall carry out my purpose. What care I
Whither you go, or what the perils be?
I would go with you into Hell!
SATAN
We go
To paradise. What is this Hell you name?
