Douglas. You love him?
Marion. Yes.
Douglas. Very much?
Marion. You see, every one is against him, and I feel that I have a chance to save him.
Douglas. You believe in him?
Marion. [Shortly.] Yes.
Douglas. Would you believe anything against him?
Marion. [On the defensive, indignant.] No!
Douglas. If some one told you of something dishonourable this man had done?
Marion. I would suspect the motive of the person who told me. Do you think I haven't heard plenty of gossip against him? Every girl I know has done her best to take away his character, and begged me to introduce him to her in the same breath.
