You must say it.

Mrs. Crowley.

But what I'm trying to make you understand is that I don't want to marry you a bit. You're just the sort of man who'll beat his wife regularly every Saturday night.... You will say yes if I ask you, won't you?

Dick.

I've never been able to refuse a woman anything.

Mrs. Crowley.

I have no doubt you will after six months of holy matrimony.

Dick.

I never saw any one make such a fuss about so insignificant a detail as a proposal of marriage.

Mrs. Crowley.
