[Anxiously.] Vicar, you’re not thinking of doing anything like that?

Vicar.

I confess the question has crossed my mind. [Kindly.] I don’t think I can bring myself to expose such good Christians as you and Sylvia to such a humiliation.

Sylvia.

You need not harass yourself, Vicar. I’ve decided not to marry John.

John.

[Aghast.] Sylvia! Sylvia, you can’t mean that!

Sylvia.

I was dreadfully troubled the other day when you told us you’d lost your faith, but I hadn’t the courage to say anything then. It came as such an awful shock.

John.
