I don't ask you to.

Jenny.

What!

Basil.

I said, until to-day I've been absolutely faithful to you. Heaven knows, I've tried to do my duty. I've done all I could to make you happy. And I've struggled with all my might to love you.

Jenny.

Say it out if you've got anything to say, I'm not afraid to hear.

Basil.

I don't wish to deceive you. It's best that you should know what has happened.

Jenny.
