MARY。  O be kind�察�be kind to me。

BRODIE。  Kind�拭 �I am kind。  I'm only ill and worried�察�can't you 
see�拭 �Whimpering�拭 �I knew it�  �Sit down�察�you goose�  �Where do you
women get your tears��

MARY。  Why are you so cross with me�拭 �Oh�察�Will�察�you have forgot 
your sister�  �Remember�察�dear�察�that I have nobody but you。  It's 
your own fault�察�Will�察�if you've taught me to come to you for 
kindness�察�for I always found it。  And I mean you shall be kind to
me again。  I know you will�察�for this is my great need�察�and the
day I've missed my mother sorest。  Just a nice look�察�dear�察�and a
soft tone in your voice�察�to give me courage�察�for I can tell you
nothing till I know that you're my own brother once again。

BRODIE。  If you'd take a hint�察�you'd put it off till to´morrow。  
But I suppose you won't。  On�察�then�察�I'm listening。  I'm
listening��

MARY。  Mr。 Leslie has asked me to be his wife。

BRODIE。  O no�察�not all。

MARY。  Speak out�察�sir。  I am not afraid。

BRODIE。  I suppose you want my consent��

MARY。  Can you ask��

BRODIE。  I didn't know。  You seem to have got on pretty well 
without it so far。

MARY。  O shame on you� �shame on you��

BRODIE。  Perhaps you may be able to do without it altogether。  I 
hope so。  For you'll never have it。 。。。 Mary�  �。。 I hate to see
you look like that。  If I could say anything else�察�believe me�察�I
would say it。  But I have said all�察�every word is spoken�察�there's
the end。

MARY。  It shall not be the end。  You owe me explanation�察�and I'll
have it。

BRODIE。  Isn't my 'No' enough�察�Mary��

MARY。  It might be enough for me�察�but it is not�察�and it cannot
be�察�enough for him。  He has asked me to be his wife�察�he tells me
his happiness is in my hands ´ poor hands�察�but they shall not
fail him�察�if my poor heart should break�  �If he has chosen and
set his hopes upon me�察�of all women in the world�察�I shall find
courage somewhere to be worthy of the choice。  And I dare you to
leave this room until you tell me all your thoughts ´ until you
prove that this is good and right。

BRODIE。  Good and right�拭 �They are strange words�察�Mary。  I mind
the time when it was good and right to be your father's daughter
and your brother's sister 。 。 。 Now�  � 。 。

MARY。  Have I changed�拭 �Not even in thought。  My father�察�Walter 
says�察�shall live and die with us。  He shall only have gained 
another son。  And you ´ you know what he thinks of you�察�you know 
what I would do for you。

BRODIE。  Give him up。

MARY。  I have told you�此 �not without a reason。

BRODIE。  You must。

MARY。  I will not。

BRODIE。  What if I told you that you could only compass your 
happiness and his at the price of my ruin��

MARY。  Your ruin��

BRODIE。  Even so。

MARY。  Ruin��

BRODIE。  It has an ugly sound�察�has it not��

MARY。  O Willie�察�what have you done�拭 �What have you done�拭 �What 
have you done��

BRODIE。  I cannot tell you�察�Mary。  But you may trust me。  You
must give up this Leslie 。 。 。 and at once。  It is to save me。

MARY。  I would die for you�察�dear�察�you know that。  But I cannot be
false to him。  Even for you�察�I cannot be false to him。

BRODIE。  We shall see。  Let me take you to your room。  Come。 
And�察�remember�察�it is for your brother's sake。  It is to save me。

MARY。  I am true Brodie。  Give me time�察�and you shall not find me
wanting。  But it is all so sudden 。。。 so strange and dreadful� �
You will give me time�察�will you not�拭 �I am only a woman�察�and 。。。
O my poor Walter�  �It will break his heart�  �It will break his
heart�   。�A KNOCK。��

BRODIE�察�HUNT

HUNT ��HAT IN HAND��。  Mr。 Deacon Brodie�察�I believe��

BRODIE。  I am he�察�Mr。 ´

HUNT。  Hunt�察�sir�察�an officer from Sir John Fielding of Bow
Street。

BRODIE。  There can be no better passport than the name。  In what 
can I serve you��

HUNT。  You'll excuse me�察�Mr。 Deacon。

BRODIE。  Your duty excuses you�察�Mr。 Hunt。

HUNT。  Your obedient。  The fact is�察�Mr。 Deacon ��we in the office 
see a good deal of the lives of private parties�察�and I needn't
tell a gentleman of your experience it's part of our duty to hold
our tongues。  Now�В察�it's come to my knowledge that you are a
trifle jokieous。  Of course I know there ain't any harm in that。 
I've been young myself�察�Mr。 Deacon�察�and speaking ´

BRODIE。  O�察�but pardon me。  Mr。 Hunt�察�I am not going to discuss
my private character with you。

HUNT。  To be sure you ain't。  ��And do I blame you�拭 �Not me。�А�
But�察�speaking as one man of the world to another�察�you naturally
see a great deal of bad company。

BRODIE。  Not half so much as you do。  But I see what you're
driving at�察�and if I can illuminate the course of justice�察�you
may command me。  ��HE SITS�察�AND MOTIONS HUNT TO DO LIKEWISE。��

HUNT。  I was dead sure of it�察�and 'and upon 'art�察�Mr。 Deacon�察�I 
thank you。  Now ��CONSULTING POCKET´BOOK���察�did you ever meet a 
certain George Smith��

BRODIE。  Let us say 。 。 。 disreputable。

HUNT。  Any means of livelihood��

BRODIE。  I really cannot pretend to guess�察�I have met the
creature at cock´fights ��which�察�as you know�察�are my weakness�А� 
Perhaps he bets。

HUNT。  ��Mr。 Deacon�察�from what I know of the gentleman�察�I should
say that if he don't ´ if he ain't open to any mortal thing ´ he
ain't the man I mean。�А �He used to be about with a man called
Badger Moore。

BRODIE。  The boxer��

HUNT。  That's him。  Know anything of him��

BRODIE。  Not much。  I lost five pieces on him in a fight�察�and I 
fear he sold his backers。

HUNT。  Speaking as one admirer of the noble art to another�察�Mr。 
Deacon�察�the losers always do。  I suppose the Badger cockfights
like the rest of us��

BRODIE。  I have met him in the pit。

HUNT。  Well�察�it's a pretty sport。  I'm as partial to a main as 
anybody。

BRODIE。  It's not an elegant taste�察�Mr。 Hunt。

HUNT。  It costs as much as though it was。  And that reminds me�察�
speaking as one sportsman to another�察�Mr。 Deacon�察�I was sorry to 
hear that you've been dropping a hatful of money lately。

BRODIE。  You are very good。

HUNT。  Four hundred in three months�察�they tell me。

BRODIE。  Ah��

HUNT。  So they say�察�sir。

BRODIE。  They have a perfect right to say so�察�Mr。 Hunt。

HUNT。  And you to do the other thing�拭 �Well�察�I'm a good hand at 
keeping close myself。

BRODIE。  I am not consulting you�察�Mr。 Hunt�察�'tis you who are 
consulting me。  And if there is nothing else ��RISING�� in which I 
can pretend to serve you 。 。 。 ��

HUNT ��RISING��。  That's about all�察�sir�察�unless you can put me on
to anything good in the way of heckle and spur�拭 �I'd try to look
in。

BRODIE。  O�察�come�察�Mr。 Hunt�察�if you have nothing to do�察�frankly
and flatly I have。  This is not the day for such a conversation��
and so good´bye to you。  ��A KNOCKING�察�C。��

got any thundering grudge agin a cove�察�why can't he spit it out��
I ses。

BRODIE。  Here are my answers ��PRODUCING PURSE AND DICE��。  These
are both too light。  This purse is empty�察�these dice are not
loaded。  Is it indiscretion to inquire how you share�拭 �Equal with
the Captain�察�I presume��

SMITH。  It's as easy as my eye�察�Deakin。  Slink Ainslie got
letting the merry glass go round�察�and didn't know the right bones
from the wrong。  That's Hall。

Little did he think ´��
