'The man's your living image.'
'Is that your reason?'
'I say it is a reason; if you saw the man yourself, you'd know it was a reason.'
'I begin to perceive your point. You were of opinion that I could be that sort of man; an accidental resemblance convinced you that I was. I am obliged to you. I will instruct Foster to see that a sum of five thousand pounds is paid to you annually, and Gayer that you are not to enter this house again. I shall refuse to acknowledge you when we meet; nor will I stay in any room in which you are. Now go.'
'I am sorry that you should take this tone. If I have done you an injustice it has been unintentionally.'
'Go.'
'I am going. I only wished to apologise to you before I went. That's all.'
And my affectionate brother followed his friends.
