Theodore, your arm. These ladies interest me. Besides, they sadly want a chaperone.
COLONEL.
They want a husband--that's what _they_ want, badly!
LADY WARGRAVE.
Gerald, call Margery. [_GERALD goes to door R._] Well, they are looking for one.
[_Glancing after GERALD._
COLONEL.
And they've found _you,_ Caroline.
[_Exeunt both, laughing, L. Each time the door, L., is opened, a babel of female voices is heard from within, and such phrases as "Peter Robinson's," "Swan and Edgar's," "Stagg and Mantle's," are distinctly audible above the clink of teacups, etc._
_Re-enter MARGERY, R.; she goes straight to LADY WARGRAVE'S chair, and is about to carry the cus.h.i.+on into the room, L., when GERALD, who has stood back, watching her, advances._
GERALD.
Margery! [_MARGERY drops the cus.h.i.+on and turns._] Thank you! G.o.d bless you!
MARGERY.
For what, sir?
GERALD.
You have not told my aunt.
MARGERY.
Of course I haven't told her! [_Slight pause._] May I go?
GERALD.
Not yet. Margery, can you ever forgive me?
MARGERY.
For being a man? Oh yes!
GERALD.
Can you ever respect me again?
MARGERY.
I do respect you, sir.
GERALD.
Not as I do you, Margery. You don't know what you did for me that day.
If you had rounded on me, I should not have cared--but to be silent--to do nothing--to forgive me!
MARGERY.
I had a reason for forgiving you.
GERALD.
What?
MARGERY.
That's my business.
GERALD.
But, Margery, you do forgive me?
MARGERY.
Don't let's talk about it.
GERALD.
_Really_ forgive me?
MARGERY.
Really!
GERALD.
Prove it to me.
MARGERY.
How can I?
GERALD [_still holding her_].
Be my wife!
MARGERY [_recoiling_].
Mr. Cazenove!
