Then why not weeks ago
When there was strife? You heard the cry of the poor
For six weeks, Bishop, and you never came.
Why wait until the starving time is past?

Bishop Hardbrooke.

I've rather arduous duties, my young brother.
Besides my Church work there are Boards and Boards
And meetings of this Charity and that
That you in business know but little of.
My interest in the poor is not unknown.

Harry Egerton.

You've been in father's confidence for years.

Bishop Hardbrooke.

I'm proud to say I have.

Harry Egerton.

There's seldom passed
A Sunday that he's not been in his pew.
