Samson.

With somebody—somebody. I read between the notes of his music. He's fallen in love and he's put it all into music. [Insinuatingly.] Do you know who she is?

Rosa.

[She gets a broom and begins to sweep.] How should I, a Christian, be so deep in his confidence?

Samson.

As deep in his confidence as need be. But do not trust him too much. Ah—[quasi-regretful]—and I am his friend. But it is love that has made a fool of me.

Rosa.

No, I should not lay it to the door of love.

Samson.

It is love. If I could look into such eyes as yours, and my heart not smoke like—like a burning haycock, then I should be more fool than now.
