Comfort forswear me!
:44:03
Unkindness may do much;
:44:06
And his unkindness may defeat my life,
:44:10
But never taint...
:44:14
my love
:44:27
That was it.
:44:30
Was it? Oh, yes!
:44:32
Yes, yes, of course it was.
:44:34
I was caught up with the...
:44:36
by the gestures and such.
:44:38
Well, well, I, I... I've er...
:44:41
I've never seen the role performed
quite... quite like that before.

:44:45
Do you think
there might be something for me?

:44:47
Er, I don't know. It... depends.
:44:50
On?
:44:51
On thousands of actors ahead of you
dying of the plague.

:44:54

:45:06
Women on stage.
What would become of me?

:45:09
And then, you auditioned for us.
:45:11
You have taken a great load off my mind.
:45:18
Mr Betterton, thank you for your time.
:45:20
Maria, my dear...
:45:22
No, sir, I'm late for Mr Cockerell's.
:45:24
Dear, dear. Well, good luck with the show.
I'd love to pop in and see it...

:45:28
Yes, I'd arrange tickets, but we're sold out.
:45:30
Sold out?
:45:33
Maria, Maria.
:45:35
Er, Mrs Hughes.
:45:36
Come, come, come.
:45:38
Ned, Ned.
:45:40
What say we give Mrs Hughes
one of the roles to play?

:45:45
No, no, not you know whno,
that's you, of course

:45:48
But we are looking for an Emilia.
She might just...

:45:51
splash things up a bit.
:45:53
What do you say?
:45:55
I- I-I refuse.
:45:58
What do you mean, you refuse?
