Return? You let it be known
you'd not admit me.

:42:05
I may have meant it at the time.
:42:07
If ever a man was possessed of a devil,
you're mine. Why I don't knock...

:42:11
And if ever a devil tortured a woman,
you're my devil and torture me!

:42:18
For pity's sake, let us part now
and quickly, or it will grow worse.

:42:22
- Go, please!
- I'll not go!

:42:31
Darling.
:42:32
Come here.
:42:39
Robert.
:42:41
Robert, let us be kind for a moment.
:42:44
No, I'll be kind. You needn't be.
:42:47
You're young and strangely sweet.
:42:50
And my heart cries out to you
wherever you are.

:42:54
And there's something in me
that has drawn you.

:42:57
But this same lovely, dreadful thing
that draws us together...

:43:01
...hurts us and blinds us
until we strike at one another.

:43:05
Yes, dear, but...
:43:06
This has gone on for a long time...
:43:09
...and it grows worse with the years.
:43:11
- It will end badly.
- What are we to do?

:43:14
You must go away, darling.
I must never see you again.

:43:18
That's what I said last time
and here I am.

:43:20
You must love someone else.
I will forgive you.

:43:24
You mean you'll try to forgive me.
:43:26
- But I would.
- There'd be nothing to forgive.

:43:29
I've tried to love others.
It's as empty as ashes.

:43:32
What others?
:43:34
- Oh, no one. No one.
- What others?

:43:37
Oh, everyone. Hundreds of others.
Thousands, if you like.

:43:42
What are others to me
when I can only hear your voice?

:43:46
Even your laughter,
mocking me, defying me.

:43:49
That's what you've done to me.
:43:51
You've made everything seem empty
away from you.

:43:54
And with you too.
:43:57
But what about me when you are gone?
