MRS HUSHABYE. Now tell me about him. Are you in love with him?
ELLIE DUNN: Oh no, I’m not so foolish. I don’t fall in love with people. I’m not so silly as you think.

All day you will be quit of him; and you will be shopping with his money. If that is too much for you, marry a seafaring man: you will be bothered with him only three weeks in the year, perhaps.
ELLIE DUNN: That would be best of all, I suppose.
