WHY JESUS WEPT. 
SIR PERCY. 
 
One kiss for good-bye. 
 
MOLLY. 
 
Good-bye. 
Slowly retires, looking over her shoulder.  They run back to meet each other, 
and embrace anew for some minutes.  Eventually Sir Percy Percivale tears 
himself away, Molly disappears, and Sir Percy goes sorrowfully back to his boat, 
which he now manoeuvres to the landing stage. 
 
ANGELA. 
 
Now let him find it !  This will puzzle him. 
When Limburger replaces Patchouli, 
Why — moonrise ! 
Sir Percy, radiant, reaches the landing stage, moors his boat and mounts.  He sees 
a pink note on the wharf. 
 
SIR PERCY. 
 
Ah !  she has dropped this ! 
A cruel fool am I ; 
I took an honied kiss ; 
I revelled in pure bliss ; 
Yet never thought to try 
A keepsake to obtain 
To wear my heart upon. 
Now God is great and gracious ; 
Here’s medicine for my pain. 
She has left it ; she has gone ! 
How sweet the air and spacious !
