"But do you–l-love Asaph?"
"Oh no! not the kind of love, that is, that you read about. No, I'm kind of afraid of him. But I'm not expecting the kind of love you read about. I'm wondering what I ought to do?"
"And you want me to decide?"
"If you only would."
"Why do you leave it to me, of all people?"
"Because you're such a fine man; you know so much. I have more–more respect for you than for anybody else I know."
"You have!"
"Oh yes! Oh yes, indeed!"
"And you'll do what I tell you to?"
"Ye-yes, I will."
