Mrs. O’Farrel.
It’s more effective, Dean.
Lady Patricia.
What you overheard yesterday gave you only a crude outline of my tragedy and sin. All the colour, all the light and shadow were missing; and without these you are bound to misjudge me.... Ah! don’t believe for a moment I am seeking to justify myself! No! No! There can be no real justification for my sin.... But I do want your understanding—I do want your pity—I do want your pardon. And from you, Dean, I have come for punishment—for penance——
Mrs. O’Farrel.
Hand her over to Baldwin.
Lady Patricia.
Baldwin?
Dean.
