[Rising.] What do you mean by that?
Oswald.
I cannot go on bearing all this anguish of soul alone.
Mrs. Alving.
Have you not your mother to share it with you?
Oswald.
Yes; that’s what I thought; and so I came home to you. But that will not do. I see it won’t do. I cannot endure my life here.
Mrs. Alving.
Oswald!
Oswald.
