Yes, Lucy?
Lucy.
I want to give into your charge what I love most in the world.... George, have you thought at all what you're going to do now? I'm afraid you can't go back to Oxford.
George.
No, I don't know what's to become of me. I wish I were dead.
Lucy.
An idea has just come to me. I'm going to ask Mr. Mackenzie to take you with him to Africa. Will you go?
George.
Yes, yes! I'd do anything to get away from England. I daren't face my friends—I'm too ashamed.
Lucy.
