I = Izzy M = Marian AC = Angel Clare R = Retty T = Tess

I: We can’t get there without walking through it.
M: That’s that then; I’m going back to bed.
I: Marian, get back here, now.
AC: Good morning ladies, and how lovely you all look. Now I see the
problem. Perhaps I can be of assistance. Who’s first?
I: First for what, sir?
AC: I’ll carry you across the water. Don’t go away.
R: I’m supposed to put my arms around his neck and put my face against
his and feel his arms around me and put my face against his … I don’t
think I can.
T: There’s nothing in it, Retty.
R: That’s what you say. I think I’m going to burst.
M: Thank you, Mr. Clare.
AC: Retty, a nice easy one this time.
I: I’m going to kiss him. I don’t care what happens, I’m going to kiss him.
You wouldn’t mind, would you, if I tried? I know that you’re his favorite
and all.
T: Izzy.
I: But I’ve got to try, haven’t I? I might never get another chance. How do
I look? Do I look pretty? Tell me, Tess.
T: Very pretty, Iz.
I: Here I go. Wish me luck.
AC: What are you doing?
T: I think I can climb along the bank after all.
AC: Tess, no!
T: Really, I’m quite all right.
AC: Tess!
T: And you must be so tired.
AC: I’ve undergone three quarters of the labor just for this moment.

T: They are much better women than I, all of them.
AC: Not to me.
T: I’m not too heavy?
AC: Compared to Marian you’re like gossamer; you’re a billow warmed by
the sun.
T: That’s very pretty, I seem like that to you.
AC: I didn’t expect an event like this today.
T: Nor I. The water came up so quickly.
AC: That’s not what I meant, at all. Ladies.
M: Come on, we’ll be late.
I: I was sure he was going to kiss me.
