my own child against me.
1:11:05
But as much as it grieves me...
1:11:08
as hard as it affects me...
1:11:12
he was right in that, too.
1:11:19
Let him know l died convinced of that.
1:11:24
lt will console him, give him new heart,
reconcile him perhaps.

1:11:31
For there was a lot of good in his nature...
1:11:36
and he was as fine a man
as anyone can be...

1:11:40
who doesn't know true love.
1:11:47
A smaII change had occurred
in the circuIar fIowerbed.

1:11:51
The sundiaI was gone,
and its pIace had been taken...

1:11:55
by a white marbIe sIab...
1:11:58
which bore onIy the words ''Effi Briest''...
1:12:01
with a cross beneath.
That was Effi's Iast request.

1:12:05
''I'd Iike to have
my oId name on my gravestone...

1:12:08
''I did no honour to my other name.''
1:12:11
And her request was granted.
1:12:15

1:12:24
He won't eat a thing.
1:12:27
Yes, Luise, these creatures!
1:12:31
That's what l always say...
1:12:35
we're not as remarkable as we think.
1:12:40
We talk about instinct...
1:12:43
and in the end, it's the best thing.
1:12:49
Not a day has passed,
since she was buried there...

1:12:53
-without these questions arising.
-What questions?

1:12:57
Whether we're not perhaps to blame?
