Mr. D. No, never!

Lewis. How? why not?

Mr. D. No! by all that is sacred you shall not marry her!

Lewis. Inconceivable! you gave your consent.

Mr. D. I withdraw it.

Lewis. [sneeringly] Very extraordinary! then why give it?

Mr. D. [harshly]. I misunderstood you.

Lewis. So! cunning enough! to put me first off my guard.

Mr. D. Be so good as to leave me.

Lewis. To give me confidence!
