Cyn. I have tried to put a brave face on it, but it’s jest takin’ my heart out.
Ariel. You are all worn out. I bet you have cleaned and packed all day! Haven’t you?
Cyn. (faintly). Yes.
Ariel. And you haven’t had a mouthful of supper, have you?
Cyn. No, I don’t want anything.
Ariel. Yes, you do!
Cyn. (protesting). No, I couldn’t eat a thing, dearie.
Ariel (rising). Yes, you could! It’s just what you need. Now you sit here and rest and I will get you something to eat.
Cyn. No, no——
Ariel. But I say, yes, yes!
