Marie.
What is it?
George.
There--something moved. It must be Gertrude. [_Goes to door C. and
calls_.] "Gertrude!!!"
[_Short pause_.]
Marie.
You must have been mistaken!
George.
No, no; I saw a shadow. "Gertrude!" Remain here, I'll go see! [_Exit
into garden_.]
Marie.
Oh, I'm so afraid, George--so afraid----!
[_Pause_.]
[George _returns, pale and agitated, trying to control
himself_.]
Marie.
Who was it? Who was it?
George.
