GUY. In time for what? I want to know. It seems to me that you were ready——

RUTH. Yes. I was ready, ready then and there to save your life.

GUY. At the price———?

RUTH. To save your life. You see, I loved you, Guy.

GUY. You loved me!

RUTH. Could I have proved it more?

GUY. There is a price which no man pays for life. You got his pistol from him. How?

RUTH. By promising. And then you came. Guy, Guy, I loved you and I wanted you to live.

GUY. And you?

RUTH. The quarry cliff is steep. I should have died.
