My dear Kroll, ask what questions you please. I have nothing to conceal.
Kroll.
Then tell me—what do you think was the real, the ultimate reason why Beata put an end to her life?
Rosmer.
Can you have any doubt on the subject? Or, rather, can you ask for reasons for what an unhappy, irresponsible invalid may do?
Kroll.
Are you certain that Beata was completely irresponsible for her actions? The doctors, at any rate, were by no means convinced of it.
Rosmer.
If the doctors had ever seen her as I have so often seen her, for days and nights together, they would have had no doubts.
