Ibsen, Henrik, 1828-1906

"Ghosts"

I--?
Mrs. Alving. Yes, now you both know it.
Oswald. Regina!
Regina (to herself). So mother was one of that sort too.
Mrs. Alving. Your mother had many good qualities, Regina.
Regina. Yes, but she was one of that sort too, all the same. I
have even thought so myself, sometimes, but--. Then, if you
please, Mrs. Alving, may I have permission to leave at once?
Mrs. Alving. Do you really wish to, Regina?
Regina. Yes, indeed, I certainly wish to.
Mrs. Alving. Of course you shall do as you like, but--
Oswald (going up to REGINA). Leave now? This is your home.
Regina. Merci, Mr. Alving--oh, of course I may say Oswald now,
but that is not the way I thought it would become allowable.
Mrs. Alving. Regina, I have not been open with you--
Regina. No, I can't say you have! If I had known Oswald was ill--
And now that there can never be anything serious between us--.
No, I really can't stay here in the country and wear myself out
looking after invalids.
Oswald. Not even for the sake of one who has so near a claim on
you?
Regina.
