MOORE。  We ain't none of us got a stiver�察�that's wot's the matter
with us。

BRODIE。  Is it��

MOORE。  Ay�察�strike me�察�it is�  �And wot we've got to is to put up

BRODIE。  I do not。

MOORE。  Then p'raps you'll tell us wot you thundering well do��

BRODIE。  What do I mean�拭 �I mean that you and that merry´andrew 
shall walk out of this room and this house。  Do you suppose�察�you 
blockheads�察�that I am blind�拭 �I'm the Deacon�察�am I not�拭 �I've
been your king and your commander。  I've led you�察�and fed you��
and thought for you with this head。  And you think to steal a
march upon a man like me�拭 �I see you through and through ��I know
you like the clock�В察�I read your thoughts like print。  Brodie��
you thought�察�has money�察�and won't do the job。  Therefore�察�you
thought�察�we must rook him to the heart。  And therefore�察�you put
up your idiot cockney。  And now you come round�察�and dictate�察�and
think sure of your Excise�拭 �Sure�拭 �Are you sure I'll let you pack
with a whole skin�拭 �By my soul�察�but I've a mind to pistol you
like dogs。  Out of this�  �Out�察�I say�察�and soil my home no more。

MOORE ��SITTING��。  Now look 'ere。  Mr。 bloody Deacon Brodie�察�you
see this 'ere chair of yours�察�don't you�拭 �Wot I ses to you is��
here I am�察�I ses�察�and here I mean to stick。  That's my motto。 
Who the devil are you to do the high and mighty�拭 �You make all
you can out of us�察�don't you�拭�and when one of your plants get
cross�察�you order us out of the ken�拭 �Muck�  �That's wot I think of
you。  Muck�  �Don't you get coming the nob over me�察�Mr。 Deacon
Brodie�察�or I'll smash you。

BRODIE。  You will��

MOORE。  Ay will I。  If I thundering well swing for it。  And as
for clearing out�拭 �Muck�  �Here I am�察�and here I stick。  Clear
out�拭 �You try it on。  I'm a man�察�I am。

your fine´madam sister�拭 �Wot about the stone´jug�察�and the dock��
and the rope in the open street�拭 �Is that plain�拭 �If it ain't��
you let me know�察�and I'll spit it out so as it'll raise the roof
off this 'ere ken。  Plain�  �I'm that cove's master�察�and I'll make
it plain enough for him。

BRODIE。  What do you want of me��

MOORE。  Wot do I want of you�拭 �Now you speak sense。  Leslie's is 
wot I want of you。  The Excise is wot I want of you。  Leslie's
to´night and the Excise to´morrow。  That's wot I want of you�察�and
wot I thundering well mean to get。

BRODIE。  Damn you��

MOORE。  Amen。  But you've got your orders。

BRODIE ��WITH PISTOL��。  Orders�拭�hey�拭�orders��

SMITH ��BETWEEN THEM��。  Deacon�察�Deacon�  � Badger�察�are you mad��

MOORE。  Muck�  �That's my motto。  Wot I ses is�察�has he got his 
orders or has he not�拭 �That's wot's the matter with him。

SMITH。  Deacon�察�half a tick。  Humphrey�察�I'm only a light weight�察�
and you fight at twelve stone ten�察�but I'm damned if I'm going to
stand still and see you hitting a pal when he's down。

MOORE。  Muck�  �That's wot I think of you。

SMITH。  He's a cut above us�察�ain't he�拭 �He never sold his
backers�察�did he�拭 �We couldn't have done without him�察�could we�拭�
You dry up about his old man�察�and his sister�察�and don't go on
hitting a pal when he's knocked out of time and cannot hit back��
for�察�damme�察�I will not stand it。

MOORE。  Amen to you。  But I'm cock of this here thundering walk�察�
and that cove's got his orders。

BRODIE ��PUTTING PISTOL ON BENCH��。  I give in。  I will do your
work for you once more。  Leslie's to´night and the Excise
to´morrow。  If that is enough�察�if you have no more 。 。 。 orders��
you may count it as done。

MOORE。  Fen larks。  No rotten shirking�察�mind。

BRODIE。  I have passed you my word。  And now you have said what
you came to say�察�you must go。  I have business here�察�but two
hours hence I am at your 。。。 orders。  Where shall I await you��

MOORE。  What about that woman's place of yours��

BRODIE。  Your will is my law。

MOORE。  That's good enough。  Now�察�Dock。

SMITH。  Bye´bye�察�my William。  Don't forget。


SCENE IX

BRODIE。  Trust me。  No man forgets his vice�察�you dogs�察�or
forgives it either。  It must be done�此 �Leslie's to´night and the
Excise to´morrow。  It shall be done。  This settles it。  They used
to fetch and carry for me�察�and now 。 。 。 I've licked their boots��
have I�拭 �I'm their man�察�their tool�察�their chattel。  It's the
bottom rung of the ladder of shame。  I sound with my foot�察�and
there's nothing underneath but the black emptiness of damnation。 
Ah�察�Deacon�察�Deacon�察�and so this is where you've been travelling
all these years�察�and it's for this that you learned French�  �The
gallows 。 。 。 God help me�察�it begins to dog me like my shadow。 
THERE'S a step to take�  �And the jerk upon your spine�  �How's a
man to die with a night´cap on�拭 �I've done with this。  Over
yonder�察�across the great ocean�察�is a new land�察�with new
characters�察�and perhaps new lives。  The sun shines�察�and the bells
ring�察�and it's a place where men live gladly�察�and the Deacon
himself can walk without terror�察�and begin again like a new´born
child。  It must be good to see day again and not to fear�察�it must
be good to be one's self with all men。  Happy like a child�察�wise
like a man�察�free like God's angels 。 。 。 should I work these
hands off and eat crusts�察�there were a life to make me  young and
good again。  And it's only over the sea�  �O man�察�you have been
blind�察�and now your eyes are opened。  It was half a life's
nightmare�察�and now you are awake。  Up�察�Deacon�察�up�察�it's hope
that's at the window�  �Mary� �Mary� �Mary��

��BRODIE has fallen into a chair�察�with his face upon the table。  
Enter MARY�察�by the side door pushing her father's chair。  She is

BRODIE。  Look up�察�my lass�察�look up�察�and be a woman�  �I 。 。 。 O
kiss me�察�Mary I give me a kiss for my good news。

MARY。  Good news�察�Will�拭 �Is it changed��

BRODIE。  Changed�拭 �Why�察�the world's a different colour�  �It was 
night�察�and now it's broad day and I trust myself again。  You must
wait�察�dear�察�wait�察�and I must work and work�察�and before the week
is out�察�as sure as God sees me�察�I'll have made you happy。  O you
may think me broken�察�hounds�察�but the Deacon's not the man to be
run down�察�trust him�察�he shall turn a corner yet�察�and leave you 
snarling�  �And you�察�Poll�察�you。  I've done nothing for you yet��
but�察�please God�察�I'll make your life a life of gold�察�and wherever
I am�察�I'll have a part in your happiness�察�and you'll know it�察�by
heaven� �and bless me。

MARY。  O Willie�察�look at him�察�I think he hears you�察�and is trying
to be glad with us。

BRODIE。  My son ´ Deacon ´ better man than I was。

BRODIE。  O for God's sake�察�hear him��

MARY。  He is quite happy�察�Will�察�and so am I 。。。 so am I。

BRODIE。  Hear me�察�Mary。  This is a big moment in our two lives。 
I swear to you by the father here between us that it shall not be
fault of mine if this thing fails�察�if this ship founders you have
set your hopes in。  I swear it by our father�察�I swear it by God's
judgments。

MARY。  I want no oaths�察�Will。

BRODIE。  No�察�but I do。  And prayers�察�Mary�察�prayers。  Pray night
and day upon your knees。  I must move mountains。

OLD BRODIE。  A wise son maketh ´ maketh  ´

BRODIE。  A glad father�拭 �And does your son�察�the Deacon�察�make you 
glad�拭 �O heaven of heavens�察�if I were a good man。
