Except that you deserted me, dear, just when I needed you most. Ernest, Ernest! never leave me again.
Ernest
Deserted you? Why, your brother said you were ill.

Ah, I see ... he was mistaken.

[jubilant and boyish]
But never mind now, I've got you at last, and I'll never, never let you go. You've got to sail with me to-morrow. Together! Oh, think! Together.
[Another embrace.
Helen
