George, it is yet time. If you love some one else----

George.

In heaven's name, child, have you ever mentioned this to any one?

Gertrude.

Only to papa; he was very angry and scolded me dreadfully.

George.

H'm! Now listen to me, my pet----

Gertrude.

Rather than make you unhappy, I would jump into the river----

George.

In the first place, your presence here in this condition is decidedly improper----

Gertrude.

But we are to be married in three days----

George.

So much more reason. [_Stroking her hair_.] What beautiful hair you have, dear!

Gertrude.

[_Happily_.] Do you like it?

George.

And in the second place, I will have none other than you. We will love each other very much. At first you will be my playmate--and then--later, perhaps--my real mate. Are you satisfied?

Gertrude.

Yes, dear!

George.

And now, you must go to bed!

Gertrude.

Then I will wrap myself in my hair--and I will dream of you and what you said--that it is beautiful--and so I will fall asleep. Good-night, George dear!

George.

[_Kisses her on the forehead_.] Good-night!

[_He gloomily takes position at table with a sigh when_ Gertrude _exits, covering his face with his hands_. Marie _enters softly_.]

George.

Marie, you have come----

Marie.

It is early yet, is it not?

George.

We have a full hour more. Have they all gone to bed?

Marie.

I think so. All the lights are out.

George.

Come, sit here----

Marie.

I--I--I think I will go back upstairs!

George.

No, no; here is something to read! You see, I'm reading myself.

Marie.

Very well. [_Sits_.] But, George, I would really prefer to go to the depot alone.

George.

[_Softly_.] Marie! [_She shuts her eyes_.] Are you tired? [_She shakes her head_.] One whole hour I will have you all to myself!

Marie.

George----

George.

Marie!!!
