Did Joseph see which way you came?
|
HINDLEY |
What does it matter? Nothing's real down there. Our life is here. |
CATHY |
Yes,my Lord.
|
HINDLEY |
The clouds are lowering over Gimmerton Head. See how the light is changing?
|
CATHY |
It would be dreadful if Hindley ever found out. |
HINDLEY |
Found out what? That you talk to me once in a while? |
CATHY |
Shouldn't talk to you at all. Look at you. You get worse everyday. Dirty
and unkempt and in rags. Why aren't you a man? Heathdff, why don't you
run away? |
HINDLEY |
Run away? From you?
|
CATHY |
You could come back to me rich and take me away. Why aren't you my prince
like we said long ago? Why can't you rescue me, Heathdiff? |
HINDLEY |
Cathy,come with me now.
|
CATHY |
Where?
|
HINDLEY |
Anywhere.
|
CATHY |
And live in haystacks? And steal our food from the market places? No, Heathcliff,that's
not what I want. |
HINDLEY |
You just want to send me off.That won't do. I've stayed here and been beaten
like a dog. Abused and cursed and driven mad, but I stayed just to be near
you. Even as a dog. And I'll stay till the end. I'll live and I'll die
under this rock. |
CATHY |
Do you hear? Music. The Lintons are giving a party.That is what I want...dancing
and singing in the pretty world. And I am going to have it. Come on! Let's
go and see. Come on! |
