Cathy! Hindley!
|
CATHY |
Father,what did you bring me?
|
HINDLEY |
Hello,father!
|
EARNSHAW |
There you are. There you are Cathy,it's what you've always wanted. A riding
crop. Be careful how you use it. |
HINDLEY |
I am so glad you got back soon,father. |
CATHY |
It's wonderful! |
HINDLEY |
Ow! Father,make her stop!
|
EARNSHAW |
Now,now,no,children,no! This is Hindley's violin. One of the best in Liverpool.
Fine tone... and a bow to go with it. Here you are, Paganini. |
CATHY |
Who's that?
|
ELLEN |
He was hungry as a wolf. |
EARNSHAW |
Oh,children,this is a little gentleman I met in Liverpool,who has accepted
my invitation to pay us a little visit. |
CATHY |
He... he's dirty. |
EARNSHAW |
Oh,no,don't make me ashamed of you, Cathy. When he's been scrubbed, Ellen,show
him Hindley's room. He'll sleep there. |
HINDLEY |
In my room? He can't. I won't let him. |
EARNSHAW |
Children,you may as well learn here and now that you must share what you
have with others not as fortunate as yourselves. Take charge of the lad,
Ellen. |
|
Come along, child. What's your name? |
EARNSHAW |
We'll call him...Heathcliff. |
CATHY |
Heathcliff, I'll race you to the barn. The one that loses has to be the
other's slave. |
HEATHCLIFF |
Come on!
