"Newland, I ran away the day after
I saw you at the play...

:50:08
...and these kind friends took me in.
:50:10
I wanted to be quiet
and think things over.

:50:14
I feel so safe here.
I wish that you were with us.

:50:18

He had received an invitation from the
Lefferts for a weekend on the Hudson.

Their house was not far
from the van der Luydens'.

:50:48
I came to see what you ran away from.
:50:52
- I knew you'd come.
- That shows you wanted me to.

:50:55
May wrote she asked you
to take care of me.

:50:58
- I didn't need to be asked.
- Why?

:51:00
Am I so helpless and defenseless?
:51:03
Or are women here so blessed
they never feel need?

:51:06
What sort of need?
:51:07
Oh, please, don't ask me.
I don't speak your language.

Henry left the patroon house open
for me. I want you to see it.

:51:28
When you wrote me, you were unhappy.
:51:31
Yes, but I can't feel unhappy
when you're here.

:51:43

:51:52
...if I'm really to help you...
:51:58
...you must tell me
what you're running from.
