SUSAN: Jimmy? You thought----

I: I think so even now. How can I help it?

Look.... [And here you must suppose me to show her

those first scrawled sheets, written automatically

by her hand.] Perhaps I'm revealing your own heart

to you, Susan--dragging to light what you've tried

to keep hidden even from yourself. See, dear. "A

net. No means of escape from it. To

escape--somehow. Jimmy----"

[And then Susan would perhaps have handed back

those scrawled pages to me with a pitying and

pitiful smile.]
