Knox
(Holding Margaret from him and looking at her.) I love you. I do love you. But I had resolved never to speak it, never to let you know.
Margaret
Silly man. I have known long that you loved me. You have told me so often and in so many ways. You could not look at me without telling me.
Knox
You saw?
Margaret
How could I help seeing? I was a woman. Only, with your voice you never spoke a word. Sit down, there, where I may look at you, and let me tell you. I shall do the speaking now.
(She urges him back into the desk-chair, and reseats herself.) (She makes as if to pull the cloak around 'her.) Shall I?
Knox
