Olive. Father! father!
Giles. Go, Olive, I can bear no more. Tell me thou wilt wed as I command you.
Olive. As thou wilt, father! father! but I will love no man as I love thee.
Giles. Go, lass. Give me a kiss. There, now go! I command thee to go! Paul, take her hence. I charge ye do by her when her father be dead and gone, as ye would were he at thy elbow. Take her hence. I would go to prayer.
[Exeunt Paul and Olive.
Olive (as the door closes). Father! father!
