WHY JESUS WEPT.
I am to do some business—aha ! some rather pleasant
business. There ! there ! (Enter Molly Tyson.)
MOLLY.
O ! Sir Percy ! My lord, could you not have told me of
this ?
GLENSTRAE.
Now, your condition !
MOLLY.
Sir Percy, do you, can you love me ? You promised to
love me for ever.
SIR PERCY.
Who is this woman ? I am weary of these women.
MOLLY.
Sir, sir, acknowledge me. You know not what hangs on
it — my honour even !
GLENSTRAE.
A speech of this breed is not in the bond — but let it
pass. There ! there !
MOLLY.
Sir, I beseech you — for an hour — take me away. I am
in terrible trouble of body and soul — danger, misery.
