Text

Oh, I’m very sorry, Arthur. (To Sir William) Indeed, I am very sorry, Sir William. But you are right—gypsies—gypsies! (To Arthur) Yes, Arthur, if you were a gypsy, as I am, as these friends o’mine are, we might be happy together. But I’ve seen enough of your life, my dear boy, to know that I’m no wife for you. I should only be wretched, and would make you wretched; and the end, when it arrived, as it very soon would, would be much as it is tonight—!

Pinero, Arthur Wing, Trelawny of the Wells, R.H. Russell, 1899, pp. 107.
