But, Ashley, you don't think the Yankees are beating us?
ASHLY
Oh, Scarlett, my men are barefooted now! And the snow in Virginia's deep.
When I see them, I see the Yankees coming and coming always more and more!
When the end does come, I shall be far away. It'll be a comfort to me to
know that she has you. You will promise, won't you?
SCARL
Yes. Is that -is that all, Ashley?
ASHLY
All except-goodbye.
SCARL
Oh, Ashley,I can't let you go!
ASHLY
You must be brave.
SCARL
No!
ASHLY
You must! How else can I bear going? Oh, Scarlett, you're so fine and strong
and beautiful. Not just your sweet face, my dear, but you.
SCARL
Ashley! Ashley, kiss me. Kiss me goodbye,Ashley.
ASHLY
No, Scarlett. No!
SCARL
Oh, Ashley, I love you! I've always loved you! I've never loved anyone
else! I only married Cahrles just to hurt you. Ashley,tell me you love
me. I'll live on to the rest of my life!
