Bobbie. Yes, but promise you won't breathe a word to the others; of course you understand he couldn't show favouritism openly.

Faith. No—I see.

Bobbie. Now that I have told you everything, Faith darling, will you—will you marry me?

Faith. Yes, Bobbie—

Bobbie. Oh! (He kisses her.)

Faith. —if mother says I may.

Bobbie. Oh! (mastering slight irritation). But don't you think she will, now?

Faith. Yes, I think so.

Bobbie (sadly). I don't believe you love me a bit.

Faith (filled with reproach). Oh, Bobbie, how can you.
