Rebecca. I knew that you soon would come to one.
Kroll (nodding to ROSMER). Aha!
Rosmer. Well—and what more? I want to know everything now.
Rebecca. Some time afterwards, I begged and implored her to let me leave Rosmersholm.
Rosmer. Why did you want to leave here—then?
Rebecca. I did not want to. I wanted to remain where I was. But I told her that it would be best for us all if I went away in time. I let her infer that if I remained here any longer I could not tell what-what-might happen.
Rosmer. That is what you said and did, then?
Rebecca. Yes, John.
Rosmer. That is what you referred to when you said that you "acted"?
Rebecca (in a broken voice). Yes, that was it.
