ANNYS. You will help us? Because it’s right, dear, isn’t it? He will
be my child as well as yours. You will let me help you make the world
better for our child—and for all the children—and for all the mothers—and
for all the dear, kind men: you will, won’t you?
GEOFFREY. I thought you were drifting away from me: that strange voices
were calling you away from life and motherhood. God has laughed at my
fears. He has sent you back to me with His command. We will fashion His
world together, we two lovers, Man and Woman, joined together in all
things. It is His will. His chains are the children’s hands.
