And now it's the end. The life we led was impossible. I tried to do something that was beyond my power. I'm going away. I can't and I won't live with you any longer.

Jenny.
You've got me to count with. I won't let you go.
Basil.
[Bitterly.] What more d'you want? Isn't it enough that you've ruined my whole life?
Jenny.
