'What are you thinking of, dearest?'
'I was thinking that supposing you were mistaken--if I failed to help you
in your work.'
'And I never succeeded in writing my play?'
'No; I don't mean that. Of course you will write your play; all you have to
do is to be less critical.'
'Yes, I know--I have heard that before; but, unfortunately, we cannot
change ourselves. I'll either carry my play through completely, realise my
ideal, or----'
'Remain for ever unsatisfied?'
'Whether I write it or no, I shall be happy in your love.'
'Yes, yes; let us be happy.'
