MARTIN DOUL. I鈥檒l be going now, I鈥檓 thinking, but I鈥檓 not sure what place my stick鈥檚 in, and I鈥檓 destroyed with terror and dread. (He touches Mary鈥檚 face as he is groping about and cries out.) There鈥檚 a thing with a cold, living face on it sitting up at my side. (He turns to run away, but misses his path and stumbles in against the wall.) My road is lost on me now! Oh, merciful God, set my foot on the path this day, and I鈥檒l be saying prayers morning and night, and not straining my ear after young girls, or doing any bad thing till I die.

MARY DOUL. (indignantly.) Let you not be telling lies to the Almighty God.

MARTIN DOUL. Mary Doul, is it? (Recovering himself with immense relief.) Is it Mary Doul, I鈥檓 saying?

MARY DOUL. There鈥檚 a sweet tone in your voice I鈥檝e not heard for a space.
