Excerpt from Forgiven Gerald's home. Gerald with bowed head, seated alone. Lights in the room, dim. G. "Dead! Both dead! Not a soul on earth left me whom I care for except my child. The gypsy's words are coming true. The curse is crushing me still." Pauses. Rises, and moves restlessly to and fro. G. "There is no forgetfulness. No matter where I go, the past is before me. Oh, those summer days in the old woods! What would I not give for one brief hour of their fond dream?" Crosses the room, and stands sadly before the portraits of Vivian and Edith. G. "Poor Vivian! Poor Edith! If the grave ends all, they have found peace now. Both loved me, both were true. Oh, Heaven, why did we meet - why did our life paths cross so fatally?" Returns to seat. Vivian appears in the doorway. V. "Papa!" G. "Yes, my pet". V. "May I come in?" G. "Certainly, my child." V. "It won't disturb you?" G. "No, no."
