Elizabeth And I
Proctor Spare me You forget nothin’ and forgive nothin’ Learn charity woman I have gone tiptoe in this house all seven month since she is gone I have not moved from there to there without I think to please you and still an everlasting funeral marches round your heart I cannot speak but I am doubted every moment judged for lies as though I come into a court when I come into this house
Elizabeth John you are not open with me You saw her with a crowd you said Now you
Proctor I’ll plead my honesty no more Elizabeth
Elizabeth (now she would justify herself) John I am only
Proctor No more I should have roared you down when first you told me your suspicion
But I wilted and like a Christian I confessed Confessed Some dream I had must have mistaken you for God that day But you’re not you’re not and let you remember it Let you look sometimes for the goodness in me and judge me not

Jack Worthing Twentynine
