(22:03):
law doesn't deal any to lightly with your kind, especially since

The revenuer is occupied watching, Noah and Walt steals
closer to him. While the old man rages Oh damn

(22:27):

an offer, I'll make you one. If you will.

(24:19):
Let me marry your daughter. We'll call this off.
What do you say? Noah, amazed, what's that
beginning to understand, he steps the ground in a rage and
advances toward Abner, who motions and back with his
pistols. Mary Miguel a revenue or Mary

First I'll I'll just a minute before you go on, listen to
this. If I take you down the ridge, as

(25:02):
I certainly will, if you don't do.
As I say think of the days in prison you're an old man and you
would probably die there betweenthe walls behind the bars.
People would come to see you andpoint their fingers through the
bars that you as they do, the animals of the circus.

(25:23):
And they'd say there is no aset,sir.
He used to be the leader on thisside of the ridge, but a
revenuer, gets them all and one got him, then they'll be your
son and all these other fellows in cages beside you.
That's right. Noah, so tears.
Oh tears. He'll take us also.

(25:45):
You will and shut up you and then there's another thing.
I want to tell you before, I take you, I have the proof that
you and your son. Were the men who killed the
revenue officers for years ago at your trial.
I shall turn the evidence against you.

(26:06):
Both that means death for you. What what's that?
Just think they'll lead you the Boss of the bridge in like a cow
and sit you down in a chair and then they'll turn on just enough
juice to burn you and let you know how it feels.
Then gradually they'll turn it on full force and your bones

(26:31):
will snap and it'll cook the flesh off your life body.
Give him your gal Noah give him your girl Mary cleansing.
It Abner with a smile. Paul he's got you so you'd
better give. And if you don't just think what
the ridge will save when he takes you to jail, you'll be the
only sets or they've ever go outyet.

I'm willing to marry him and if you'll let me, it'll save us
all. I'm going to marry him, anyhow.

materials and incidentally smiling at Mary o wife.

(27:40):
This has been the first real funI've had since the Boston police
riot your Doug guessed. It Mary who has been standing by
Abner's side now steps forward? No he ain't par.
We wanted to get married but I couldn't think of running away
like Lawrence wanted me to when the whole ridge thinking me.

(28:02):
A Setzer had run away with a revenuer and then I could have
never come back for you to goddess.
Yes, he would. So he would and we wanted to To
be married right away but we couldn't think of no way to
prove it. Lawrence one, no revenue, or so
away. Mary happened to remember a hold

and then Walt interrupting with a loud, go far, and then there's
an that they did take get us marrying Abner, not a smiling

Scene 1 the Widow Lizette. Well, it is true.
Our house is altered, a great deal in a short time, only a
week ago. It was a lively Rendezvous for
innumerable. Young gentleman and lovesick

(01:15:55):
fools every day. Some of them have dropped off
one day, these stayed away the next day, those and others the
day after God be thanked to are still left.
If they too should find their way off, our house will be
deserted Madam Madam. Well, what is the matter?

(01:16:19):
Then I too should certainly remain no longer with you.
However, well-off I, maybe Society is the half of life.
You would have been better fitted for an ending for my
service, then True in an init isLively at any rate if there was
not so much work there. Who knows what I might not have

(01:16:40):
done. If one is unfortunate enough to
be a servant at all, I think it is most sensible to have a place
where one can have the greatest pleasure with one's work, but
joking, apart what our hair Damon and hair Leander to you at
present, what are they This question seems strange to you, I

(01:17:02):
know well enough. What they were to you before,
they were your suitors and so they are still.
So, they are still really Damon is then Lee and his rival and
lie under Damon's, and yet lie under and Damon are the best of
friends that is a new fashion against that I protest with

(01:17:24):
might and Main, what Rivals who do not quarrel with each other,
and slander abuse deceive Challenge and fight each other.
Nice creatures, they would be know.
The old way is right between Rivals.
There must be enmity or they areno Rivals.

(01:17:45):
It is true. I myself have been rather
astonished at their behavior. No, one behaved more
affectionately towards me than they did before.
Either of them knew that they had one in the same aim.
No one was more tender. No one.
Endeavored more to gain my favorthan they.
No. Sooner.
Did they perceive that one, was the Rival of the other, then

(01:18:06):
both relaxed in their Zeal to, please me each spoken.
In favor of the other Damon of Leander &, Leander of Damon,
both were silent about their ownAffairs.
And in spite of this, you still consider both of them.
Your suitors. Yes, I am thoroughly convinced.
That both love me both. Love me.

(01:18:26):
Sincerely. Damon it only appears to me to
vacillating and Leander little too impetuous.
I should almost like to ask you something.
Very well. Let me hear.
It. But will you answer me candidly?
Shall I answer you candidly? I do not see what should make
me. Give you a false answer.

(01:18:48):
If your question does not, please me?
I should prefer not to enter a you at all.
You believe that you are loved by both and perhaps rightly but
which of them then. Do you love which yes wedge.
The question is curious. I love them both.
Well that is good. Will you marry them both to To

(01:19:11):
you confuse matters. We were speaking at present of
loving, not of marrying. All suitors that I have had have
been either, vain lovesick Port,ruins are low-minded egoistic
creatures. What have I not had to endure
from both sorts only Damon and the under differed from them,

(01:19:35):
from the very beginning. I perceived this difference with
the greatest pleasure and I alsothink that I have given them to
understand plainly enough, how well I knew how to make a
distinction with them. I have given them.
Discharge to all who were not wise enough to take it to
themselves, I have only kept those two here and I still see

(01:19:58):
them with pleasure in my house. But what is to come of it?
I will wait and see if I cannot become the best beloved of both.
I can become the friend of both,I suppose.
Yes. Truly friendship appears to be
now much more Charming Than Love.
I must describe this to the example of my tender lovers.

(01:20:22):
What friendship friendship more Charming than love dry.
Friendship, don't talk. So philosophically.
Pray, I assure you, I believe only as much of it as I like
your heart thinks quite differently and it would not do
it much honor either. If it did agree with the lips,
just let me try whether I understand.

(01:20:44):
It's mute language, I hear it? Yes.
Yes. It speaks.
What are these sincere lovers? What new kind of love is this?
Which the site of a friend can stifle?
Neither of them will run the risk of losing his friend for my
sake. Oh the undeserving creatures.

(01:21:04):
I will hate them. Yes, I will.
But shall I then be able to do. So shall I silence silence
Lisette? You understand, its mute
language very badly. Oh, pardon me this Interruption
proves to me that, I understand it very well.
Well, well, how can it be? Otherwise I should be very

(01:21:26):
vexed. If friendship played me such a
trick, just consider what else, but friendship is to blame that
you are now without a Suitor at all.
When you might have two of them,it would be a shame if love were
not stronger than friendship alas.
Ha ha that I understand to just listen, if I can't explain it,

(01:21:48):
cleverly it stays this does it, not lie, set, do not force me
further to confess to you. What you already know would to
Heaven that love was stronger than friendship.
Only in one of them. If you can do anything towards
making my lover's more sensitiveand less conscientious, what
wanderings of it is? Oh, I beg your pardon.

(01:22:12):
They are your own one. Turing's suppose.
Now I confess to you that I would prefer to see them both
reveal their loved me, more openly both strive, tenderly to
conquer my heart. The one try to take the
Precedence of the other to see, even the favors, which I should

(01:22:33):
bestow upon one in Greater degrees.
Strange them a little To be ableeven to have the pleasure of
reuniting them in order to separate them in you.
Suppose I say I confess this to you what then we'll certainly it
would be rather more than you were willing to confess a little

(01:22:56):
while ago. But really I do not know at all.
What reason I have to give account of my heart to you.
I agree with you. You have none.
You do it from Mere kindness, but your kindness shall not have
been in vain. I assure you.
I will do my utmost to make Makeall happen as you wish.

(01:23:18):
But just tell me first for. Which one do you think you would
like best to declare yourself for Damon or Leander?
You hesitate listen, a good idea.
Occurs to me, you know, that year ago, each embarked almost
the whole of his fortune on a particular ship which traffic's

(01:23:38):
with the East Indies, they are in Daily expectation of the
return of their ships. How would it be if we to waited
and then declared ourselves for the one who has been most
fortunate in this transaction? I am willing only here comes her
Damon, just leave me alone with him.

(01:24:00):
I will sift him. Seeing to lizard demon, your
servant her Damon. You seem to be looking for
somebody who is it? The answer was to meet me here.
Have not you seen him? No.
But must you go away again. Immediately on this account,

(01:24:23):
stay a moment. Does the time already seem long
to you because he cannot come immediately and practical to you
his sweet dreams of Bishop, if you have only come to here
pleasing fibs and enrapturing thoughts from your friend, stay
stay here. I will give you them as well as
he truly since you and Haley under have met here.

(01:24:47):
The very walls ReSound with the praise of friendship, I must
surely have retained, a little of it, these real reasons are at
my friends expense. They must necessarily be
offensive to me, be silent if you please.
He's a the juice might be silentunder such circumstances.

(01:25:07):
Just consider for yourself. You are in the House of a young
amiable Widow. You love her.
You seek a return of your love but dear me in what A peculiar
way. A friend intimidates you in your
courtship you will not offend him.
Your love is much too weak to enjoy his groundless reproaches.

(01:25:30):
You prefer to neglect, your lover, rather than your friend
very well that might pass. If only the other one was not
just as Whimsical, a fellow are akhanda.
Cannot in any way appear strangeto your mistress.
She is aware of the affection ofboth of us.
We both declared ourselves to her before.

(01:25:51):
We knew we had declared the samething we Endeavor to be sincere.
Friends would not therefore be unjust if with the Impatient
solicitation? I wish to Rob Leander or Leander
to rob me of a heart, which may perhaps in time surrender is
self to one of us from affection, from affection as if

(01:26:14):
a woman had not equal affection for every well-favored.
Man, for instance, what would I care?
Whether I got you or Hurley under, do not take it amiss that
for once. I indulge my pride in such sweet
dreams, you And Hallie under ourof healthy Constitution robust

(01:26:34):
and cheerful. One cannot go wrong in the
choice between two equally good things.
Take the first that comes, you judge your mistress by yourself
and certainly you do not do hurtmuch Honor by it.
I know her too. Well she has nobler ideas of
Love. Ah do not take it.
I love me. Love Is Love a queen.

(01:26:57):
Does not love better than a beggar or a philosopher.
More nobly than a stupid peasantand die.
And my mistress certainly, wouldnot differ a hair's breadth in
the important part of love. Good morning.
I've neither inclination nor time at present to refute your
groundless talk should hair. Leander come begging, please.
To wait a moment. I first a little business to

(01:27:19):
transact. I shall be back directly bother
it. Just wait another moment you
call my talk groundless. Well then just listen and I'll
tell you something. Perhaps, it will seem a little
better grounded to you then. Well, I shall have to hear
something extraordinary then. Do you know what, my mistress
has decided to do? She's going to wait until the

(01:27:42):
two ships have come back in which you have placed your
fortunes and she will marry the one straight off who has been
most successful in the business.Do you believe now that it will
be all the same to my mistress? Whether she gets you or her lie
under a What? Your mistress has decided to do

(01:28:03):
that. Go and tell your tale to someone
else. Well why does that seem so
improbable to you? Is it so wicked?
That one rather marries a rich man than a poor one.
You foolish men would soon account your buttons I suppose
when you cannot make up your mind.
And yet I should think she has acted ten times more wisely.

(01:28:25):
In leaving it to fate to turn the scale and settle her
feelings. Heavens.
How unhappy I am if you speak the truth, could I ever have
imagined that Rich has had such charms for her.
Do they alone? Make us precious?
Does she not find anything in Leander or myself, which could

(01:28:45):
counterbalance? This does linked rifle.
I could almost repent of loving a person who so basely come
come. Gently gently not so much abuse.
Did you expect something back toher?
The money itself is not exactly what she Desires in you.
The feelings of my mistress towards you and Haley under are

(01:29:08):
equally balanced at present and the money is only to be a little
addition which will give the advantage to one scale or the
other. Oh grasping we are not do not
say that of us mind. Although after all it would be
no shame for us. If we were so Why you show her
plainly Enough by not having spoken to her again for a long

(01:29:31):
time? Of your love?
That it would be all the same toyou.
If she declared herself for you or for your friend and lie under
has done the same. So how could she act more
judiciously alas? But I'm so enamored of her and
that, I'm so conscientious in Friendship.
Would you have been better pleased?

(01:29:52):
If my mistress had let you cast lots for her.
The one with the Most all the fewest points to have had her
for his wife. This is a very praiseworthy
custom among soldiers, when of the two culprits who are to be
hanged, his life is to be granted to one and each of them
deserves it as little as the other.
Yes. Yes, she ought to have followed

(01:30:14):
this fashion here too. I suppose Orton.
She your real arrays are very much out of place.
My heart is but I will go, there's a lizard.
How uneasy you have made me. Oh, good heavens.
Seeing three Lizette. Well, he has a flea in his ear

(01:30:35):
now but what does it profit me? I can understand him as little
now as before if only I could have got him at least so far as
to come out with his love declarations again but really
words are thrown away on him. He was on Needles and Pins.
Hush Here Comes lie under. Let me see what can be done with

(01:30:57):
him. See Scene for Lisette Leander.
A little sooner and you would have met him.
Really, that's Damon being here already.
Yes, yes. And he will be back again.
Immediately, you are to wait a little, but how cross you look

(01:31:18):
today? For once Haley, under that face
does not become a Suitor at all for shame.
Be Lively now and knives and Mary, he who has as much cause
for vexation. As I don't tell Me that you have
a great deal on your heart to trouble you.
I dare say I can almost guess towhat it is.

(01:31:43):
I love torments. You are you tired at last of
ranking? Friendship above it.
That would only be what is Right?
Courage, never mind, a friend make my mistress and other
offer. I give you my word, you will get
her, but if you go on dallying any longer.

(01:32:04):
I will not answer for anything. My mistress cannot choose.
She has resigned all to Blind chance.
Unless one of you come soon to take her, she means to give our
heart hand and Fortune to the one who is most fortunate in the
business, with the East Indies, what is the matter with you?

(01:32:26):
What is the matter, this ayat? For Heaven's Sake, to the one?
Who is most successful. Now my misery is complete
complete. What does that mean?
Explain yourself. Well, I will confide in you Know
then that only last night I received news that my ship was

(01:32:46):
wrecked in a storm cruel fate was it then not enough to rob me
of my fortune. Must you also tear away from me
the object by. So tender love the other abused,
my mistress and he abused his fate and both after all, are
innocent Haley. Under your Misfortune touches

(01:33:07):
me, I can. Well, believe that it must cause
one enough fix. Action to lose one's Fortune.
I have not yet gone through thispainful experience for heaven be
thanked. I have not got a fortune but if
the vexation at losing riches isas great as the desire of
gaining them, then it must be insupportable.

(01:33:31):
I confess it. But to come to the other point,
the object of your tender love. I presume you mean my mistress.
Don't you listen? Now this loss you have brought
on yourself, but if you will obey me Hayley under, she may
not be quite lost yet. However, it may seem to be speak

(01:33:54):
openly pray. I will obey you and everything,
which can be of use to me, but Idoubt if you will do it, do not
doubt. I beg you.
I know your obstinacy only too. Well, you are too much taken up
with your lofty Notions of Friendship, Damon your dearest
friend. In the world, the most precious

(01:34:15):
gift of heaven without which allthings all honor or pleasure
scene, but despicable to you, but Vain and tasteless Damon
your second self. Whose happiness is your
happiness. Whose Misfortune is your
Misfortune? Damon the noble.
Damon the yes. Quite solely set.

(01:34:39):
You will never be able. Surprise him, sufficiently.
He is the only one who will helpme to Bear my Misfortune.
I've always had the best opinionof him and the tenderest
feelings towards him. I doubt not.
He will now show how Worthy is of my friendship, had he lost
his fortune. Mine would have been his, I

(01:35:01):
should refuse for his sake, the hand of the most lovable being
Damon. Yes.
Damon. Had he my heart?
But I know the true tenderness of friendship, he never has been
quite able to feel properly. Yes, Hallie under, if you wish
to be happy you must forget this.
Damon for a time. Do not start at this

(01:35:23):
proposition. How do you mean that?
Well, I see that. You demand my explanation with a
tolerably composed face. Do not be afraid.
I recommend no treason against your friend.
Neither, will he nor you yourself have caused to reproach
you for anything to be brief? Go to my mistress.

(01:35:46):
Make her a straightforward offerassure her.
That Damon does not love her anymore.
If necessary, add a few fibs, which will make him more hateful
to her, you will see all will gowell, but suppose now she
persist in waiting to see who will be the most successful in
this affair. Nothing will help me then.

(01:36:09):
Liz it aside. Hmm, he thought the steadfast
friend. Can he be talked over?
So easily allowed. She will hardly insist upon that
tele under but suppose even she did it won't do any harm to us
and I'll tell you something. I know that you and her Damon

(01:36:32):
have several times been inclinedto exchange your capitals, they
are of equal. Value.
I should think you might try to persuade her Damon to do it
still, he does not know yet. I suppose that your ship is said
to have founded know, well that will do very well.
Try to get his capital and resign yours to him.

(01:36:54):
With all the prophets, you can easily do that and you will
easily be able to hit Upon A plausible pretext.
Suppose you said to him dearest Damon friendship has United us.
Efficiently closely. How would it be?
However, if we employed our worldly possessions also to

(01:37:14):
unite ourselves, even more firmly.
Let us therefore, make an exchange of the said capitals,
which we have put in the east. Indian affair, should yours have
yielded more interest than mine.I should have to thank you for a
part of my fortune. If mine should have increased
more, I shall have the pleasure of seeing in your hands, that

(01:37:36):
which good Look had in reality destined for me, and shall we
not by? This means be all the more bound
to assist one another, with our Fortunes, in any case of
necessity, which may occur, youradvice is good and also the
pretext seems plausible enough, but I fear that, my friend might
entertain a suspicion of me on this account.

(01:38:00):
I should not like to make this proposal myself.
Could you not perhaps suggest this idea to your mistress?
If Pit to like it then I understand you.
I understand you rely upon me and make haste to go to my
mistress directly. I have spoken with my friend.
God is my witness that my intentions throughout our

(01:38:22):
honest. I know for certain that my
friend could not be sufficientlymagnanimous to fulfill the
duties towards me, which in the case of the loss of my fortune,
our friendship would impose uponhim.
I will free him. Therefore, From the shame of
being called an Unfaithful Friend by posterity.
But on my side, I will show him that my words agree entirely

(01:38:45):
with my Deeds. He shall have the half of my
fortune considering that the whole belongs to him by, right?
That is a sincere friend. I would do everything to help
him on again. Perhaps another time, he may be
successful, perhaps hush-hush, her Damon is coming back.

(01:39:06):
I will go. He might think we had had who
knows what to talk about together?
I will go to my mistress follow me soon aside.
Well that I am sure. I should not have expected.
Scene five Leander, Damon. So I must not say anything to

(01:39:28):
him about my Misfortune which however, is just what I asked
him to come here for What then shall I have to say to him?
Never mind. Something will turn up.
Oh my dears Leander, forgive me that I have kept you waiting.
I forgive you. How have you offended me to lay

(01:39:49):
aside once for all dearest friend, this misconception.
So detrimental to me that you are able to offend me.
One friend is never angry with another the common herd to whom
the sweet Union of Souls is unknown.
And to their irreparable loss Will eternally, remain unknown,

(01:40:09):
the common herd, the disgrace ofthe human race.
May quarrel among themselves. ABS friendship arms and Noble
soul with an insurmountable moderation.
What it's friend does, what comes from?
Its friend is right and pleasingto it, offense has only become
offenses through the evil designs of him who offends and

(01:40:33):
the sensitiveness of him who is offended, where therefore no one
has evil designs and no one is sensitive there exists.
No. Offences and us Friends, then
Foster evil designs against another or will one friend then
become sensitive about another 0.

(01:40:53):
Therefore dearest Damon. Even if through you, the
greatest disgrace should before me, if through you, I should
lose honour and repute. If through you I should lose
property and money. If through you I should become
sick, lame, blind and deaf if you should deprive me of father

(01:41:14):
mother, Other. If you even took my life, do you
believe dearest Damon that you would have offended me now?
However, much you might be wrong.
You would nonetheless be right to me, even should the whole
world condemned? You I should exculpate you.
I should have quit you, I shouldlikely under to be able to

(01:41:38):
answer you with equal order. I will endeavor, never to put
your friendship to so severe a test.
Hey dearest friend. Why so cold?
Do you doubt the sincerity of mywords?
Do you doubt that my friendship would stand this test would to
Heaven? Yes, would to Heaven that you

(01:41:58):
would offend me, the sooner, thebetter in a manner, which to
another would be unpardonable. How pleased, how to light it?
Would I be to practice on you? The Sweet Revenge of magnanimous
forgiveness and I will Which on the contrary that I may never
have need of this. Magnanimous.
Forgiveness, yes, Damon. And I shall also expect the same

(01:42:23):
from you in a similar case. Oh, I know you too.
Well, your heart is noble and generous.
It does not permit me to doubt, you credit me with too much.
Most valued Leander, I confess to you full of shame that I find
myself too weak for that their ideas.
Seem true and Noble to me but their accomplishment impossible.

(01:42:44):
Okay, I tremble already in anticipation of the thought that
my friendship May perhaps someday have to bear such a
severe test, your virtue, however, is my security and is a
friend, really constrained to use such an all to magnanimous
moderation. I know it is the duty of a
friend to forgive another, but it is also the duty of the other

(01:43:07):
to give him as little occasion for it as possible.
My friend, in forgiving, we To assemble Heaven, our trespasses.
However, great and frequent. They are do not worry it in
this. It's worth the employment.
Him whom one has once. Chosen for one's friend, one

(01:43:27):
must retain, neither his faults nor his offenses, must be able
to banish him from our favor. He disgraced himself who lets it
come to this? Or is it?
Then no disgrace to have to confess with shame.
That one has been gross. Sadly mistaken in one's choice,
but d-rose Leander. Tell me why you desire to speak.

(01:43:50):
To me, what is the important news?
Which you have to disclose to me, to my words, become tedious
to you. I cannot believe it.
You know how one likes to speak of things, which are Pleasant to
one. And I know one also likes
equally while to hear of them, but you do not seem to be quite
in the mood for either today. What troubles?

(01:44:13):
You This any Misfortune befall, a new reveal it to me.
Give me the pleasure of sharing your grief with you.
You shall then hear what I have to tell you.
You are not mistaken. I am perplexed and grieved and
at what, oh, why do you hesitateto confide your secret to me, do

(01:44:36):
you distrust my discretion? Do you doubt that I shall help
you if it is in my power? Or do you doubt my sympathy?
Whenever I can pour out my heartto you half of my grief vanishes
immediately only try it. Perhaps, I'm so fortunate that
you may also find some relief inmy confidence.

(01:44:58):
It concerns you and me and so much.
The more reason to speak it out or must you keep it secret.
Oh, what one has told only to one's friend, one has told to No
One, my friend and I are one andif I had Can the most solemn
oath. Never to breathe a word, to
anyone of this or that I might yet.

(01:45:20):
Without breaking my oath. Relate it to my friend.
What I confide to him, I can fight myself and I do nothing
more than repeat it. Once again to myself.
In thought. No, no I shall not be concealed
from you. Can you imagine when Madam has
resolved to do what? We'll just guess.

(01:45:41):
Um what she will make the choicebetween us too rare?
First, it was just this, my Damon, just this the tie to had
to tell you to speak candidly. I am astounded at this base
resolution, no Leander rather than 0 her hand to such a
shameful, cause I will renounce her forever and to you believe,

(01:46:02):
then that I should accept her. We have the most disinterested
intentions with respect to her. We should love her even if she
possessed nothing, whatever, andshe is.
So self-interested is Despicablewealth.
The only thing which pleases herin us.

(01:46:22):
What if we tried to foil this resolution and every possible
way may I propose something to you?
Where do you think if we shared the gain and loss in this
affair? Leander aside hist but his Grist
for my Mill. The Exchange would then be
necessary allowed. Yes, you are right.

(01:46:44):
Nothing could more easily. Bring her back to the right
course to choose between us for loves and merits sake.
I agree to it. Oh, how happy you make me again
by your approval? I feared all the time.
I figured you might withhold it from me in this matter.
And you would have had a right to do.
So how little you give me creditfor indeed, what?

(01:47:07):
Right could I possibly have not to be at one with you in this?
By all things are common betweenfriends.
What is mine is yours and I consider that I too have a
little claim upon what is yours away with selfishness even
though by this fate should be sounfavorable to you that you

(01:47:28):
should lose all or not. The half of my fortune but the
whole would be as good as yours at any time.
Friend, you make me quite ashamed.
What I say, I should also do. And if I had done it, I should
not after all have done anythingmore than what the duty of her

(01:47:49):
friend at demands, but I do not understand where hidden feeling
within me. Makes me doubt the very truth of
a resolution could Lisette afterall.
I too have it from her. Yet, we shall find that out.
It is of no little importance tous both.
Will you excuse me? I will go myself to our beloved

(01:48:12):
and inquire but Leander. How will that do?
Will she not be hurt by? This inquisitiveness do not
fear. I shall know how to introduce
the subject in such a way that very well I rely on your school.
Come back soon and bring me wordLeander aside.
And well, that is a good pretextfor getting away from him.

(01:48:37):
Scene 6 Gaiman either. I am quite an adapted for
friendship for the Ender. Has very extravagant ideas about
it. I should be unhappy if the
former were true. Yes friendship is certainly that
which must primarily make life agreeable to us so much for you,

(01:48:59):
but so much as my friend says, he feels, I do not feel suppose,
he offended me. He offended me in such manner.
As he wished me to offend him. Should I know, I will not
flatter myself. I should, I should be much too
weak to forgive him. Yes, I should take it in bed
party if he should pardon me on such an occasion, I should even

(01:49:19):
blame him yet. I do not think him even capable
of it either, let him be what hewill, but perhaps I'm mistaken.
I judge him by myself. Does it follow them?
Because I am so weak that. Another, but certainly such a
perfect friendship is not for this world.
I wonder whether Leander Really thinks as he speaks stop, I
will. Yes.

(01:49:39):
Suppose, I told him that I have received news that my vessel was
wrecked, then I shall see whether his generosity would be
rather a joke if I saw him perplexed.
But no, that was I mean thought to put one's friend to a test is
to wish to lose one's friend. No.
But suppose the Widow help to her foolish resolution suppose,
the answer became happy through her.

(01:50:00):
Shall I be able to remain his friend?
I tremble? Yes, I feel my weakness.
I should be angry with him. I should grow ngos, I'm truly
ashamed of myself. Scene 7 or Aunt?

in this affair. You have been fortunate in
finding an opportunity to show your Noble mind in such an
exceptional manner, which our greatest Good Fortune.
Is that you have now received light to perceive the falseness

(02:04:13):
of your friend, whose pompous gibberish has dazed you hitherto
Leander, consider your conduct. You had received the tidings
that your ship was lost in your anxiety.
You sought relief from me, you disregarded your friend in a
shameful manner. My resolution to declare myself.

(02:04:35):
For the most fortunate was only disagreeable to you and as far
as you feared, that you would not be the one.
You tried to persuade me that Damon loved me no longer.
And lastly, think of the exchange to which I was to tempt
Damon at a time when you thoughtthat his Affairs, stood better

(02:04:56):
than yours. Consider all this and be ashamed
to have deceived. A friend who has steamed you
above everything. Go enjoy your wealth which could
really have fallen to know. Unworthy, a man Leander.
Am I to believe it. You wish to deceive me.

refused all. If with me, you do not forget
everything if you separate us, Ishall necessarily be the most

(02:05:59):
unhappy. I know how difficult it is, to
find a friend and if for the first offense, one will forsake.
When will seek a lifetime for one in vain Damon judge from
these tears. Whether I am moved well,
Leander, Damon forgives you and I myself do not know whether I

(02:06:21):
am more moved by his generosity or your repentance.
Let us also begin our friendshipAnu.
Oh, Damon. How tender will your love be
since your friendship is so tender, so my whirring was no
good. After all consistently still be
under that, it is a little more difficult to practice the duties

(02:06:44):
of friendship than to rhapsodizeabout it.
Yes, Stegman. I have often spoken a friendship
but only today. Have I learned from you?
What it is day? Damon, Damon, I fear.
