Marie.
Very well, Pastor; but no one must know before the wedding!
Pastor.
Perhaps on the wedding day--at the wedding feast? Papa might make the
announcement; that would be such a fitting occasion!
Marie.
No, no! I will have to much to do then.
Pastor.
Then, when the happy pair have gone?
Marie.
[_With sudden, impulsive decision_.] Yes, when they have gone!
Pastor.
[_Takes her hand_.] Thank you. Miss Marie.
[_Voices are heard outside_.]
Marie.
