"The Girl Irene" "so delighted" " excuse me, I'm late - don't mention it" " a cocktail?" " dry one cocktail" "my dear Jenny" "I was afraid you wouldn't come" "I'm so happy that you're here, come with me" "Sir John Corbett Lady Lawrence our good Jenny" "no, do sit down" "bravo gentlemen, I thank you you've played exceptionally really exceptionally" "it's the first time in my life that music has made a deep impression on me" "but they played wonderfully is that so?" "I didn't notice at all" "my dear Sir John in Europe again?" "and I thought you fell victim to your passion for India but is there no woman who can get hold of this adventurer?" "my dear, it's high time you got yourself caught but it's already happened, Duchess" " really!" "who's the unhappy woman?" " But Duchess!" "she'll certainly be unhappy a woman capable of keeping you imprisoned for life cannot be found in our circles, believe me" "I'm really competent in such matters" ""it's already happened", he said that man has an unusual way of expressing himself but now it's done tell me, Jennifer, what did he say about me?" "how does he like my perfume?" "I'm extraordinarily happy shall I marry him?" "if you love him." "he suits me so well he is the right frame for me he's exceptionally decorative those are certainly convincing reasons for marrying a man aren't they, Jennifer!" "I thank you for your advice you're so wise, so experienced dearest, have a cocktail no thank you, I have to take leave now" "I'm returning to Paris in an hour you're travelling?" "yes, unfortunately my holidays are over farewell, Baroness but my bridegroom, don't you want to... no, I'd rather withdraw quietly and secretly but I'll design you an uncommonly beautiful wedding dress instead heavenly!" "Jennifer sends her excuses, she had to leave" " leave?" " yes, for Paris probably an amorous adventure awaiting her what a pity that I'm not in Paris!" "pardon what business has that dressmaker in our circles?" "she has excellent manners" "I hear she's from a good family too but still she's a common ..." "how shall I express myself... it would be better if you didn't express yourself at all, Lady Taylor unless you want to say something very agreeable about Mrs. Lawrence but that probably wasn't your intention indeed it wasn't" "women like Jennifer are only tolerated in our circles because we need them but I don't understand... why do you all make such a fuss about that woman?" "I'm only interested in her dresses otherwise I don't care about her at all for me she remains a beast and for me you remain an idiot" "I beg your pardon!" "My ladies, what do you think of that!" "extraordinary!" "very extraordinary!" "exceptionally extraordinary!" "Madame departed without saying farewell" "I tried to reach you, but I was too late so I decided to fly over did you have a nice trip?" "you came here to ask me that?" "no, there's another reason too, but this is not the right place to talk about it may I have your luggage ticket?" "porter take the luggage to the Hotel Majestic how do you know where I live?" "it wasn't hard to find out where the famous queen of fashion reserved rooms" "over there you can see the Dome des Invalides, Napoleon's tomb have you flown over to Paris to show me the sights of the city?" "certainly not" "I'm here to tell you... no explanations please." "give me a cigarette" "does the Baroness know that you're in Paris?" "she doesn't then I'll lose a good customer or win a good friend" "when will you be leaving for India?" "as soon as you want me to then I want you to leave today it's useless, Sir John you're looking for an adventure, and I'm totally unsuitable for such a thing" "I'm sorry to have to disappoint you, because I find you attractive yes, I'm so ill-bred and honest to admit that" " Madame..." " no no, don't talk in Monte-Carlo there's a woman waiting for you who loves you exceptionally" "I know exactly that our conversation will end by your saying farewell therefore take this letter without this farewell you wouldn't be the woman I'm following but does one escape one's fate by saying farewell?" "I don't think so." "one might delay it, but one cannot escape it" "I'm not looking for an adventure, I'm looking for a human being,  and I've found her" "yes?" "yes" "I've read it yes" "very well alright" "is there a secret?" "my children you're married?" "I lost my husband 12 years ago and since then?" "I've only lived for my two children" "look up!" "shoot!" "if it weren't your birthday today I'd show you!" "my dear Irene" "I congratulate with all my heart on your 16th birthday vivat vivat vivat thank you, thank you, thank you" "which means farewell to childhood, and the beginning of a new period in your life preserve all your life the beautiful discipline with which you were always a shining example to your comrades at school" "Gesundheit thank you" "I thank you very much, Miss Wolf." "proceed!" " you'll always remain a she-goat - and you a sheep if it weren't your birthday today I'd show you!" "silence!" "my dear Irene" "I congratulate with all my heart on your 16th birthday which means farewell to childhood and the beginning of a new period in your life preserve all your life the beautiful discipline with which you were at school ... to your comrades" "the she-goats always a shining example" "stop that!" "dear Baba" "I only wished you'd pay the same attention to my words on other occasions by the way, I have been imitated much better before" "Irene, there's Philip" "?" "you're only angry because he doesn't take you seriously what do I care about him to me he's one of the most stupid men of the century bye bye" " good day, Philip - good day, Irene good day dear Irene, on your birthday today I congratulate with all my heart" "I wish you a long life, health" " and many children" " Baba!" " Pardon here you are no thank you." "I'm past the age of eating sweets yes, you're a bitter pill stupid brat if you call me stupid brat once more..." "Baba!" "letting him call me a stupid brat..." " be silent - that to me!" "Philip, thank you very much, that's terribly nice of you in the first place they don't smell, second, they're miserable don't listen to the stupid sheep considering today's birthday I refrain from answering, you stupid she-goat" " stupid sheep - she-goat" "Irene, ignore that premature child" "I've brought you something else too that pitiful greenery would have been too little anyway" "poems!" "written by myself to a virgin unsuitable for minors at a dangerous age shut up!" "let her" "Amanda, dearest child your burden on the breast of cold hearts" "the lighter of love, the golden box of noble aims sigh's bellows sorrow's blotting paper" "?" "box for my pains and ?" "oil for my sorrows you food for my lust you flame of my heart" "stop it!" "no I'll teach you... now the time has come, you almond paste of my heart ... how else to describe you, my child.... idler of my distress and mopping broom of my sorrows" "Irene, wait for ..." "Irene Irene" "if you don't stop laughing I'll... take off your coat, quickly" "come on, let's have it out stupid sheep!" "she-goat!" "that was mean" "Baba!" "Irene!" "good day, Grandma what's the matter with the two of you?" "nothing, Grandma nothing at all" "Grandma you call that nothing?" "if your mother saw that she wouldn't say anything about it" "and on top of if, Irene on your birthday # she'll be 16 today" "# Irene, the good child # we all love her # like we are gathered here # like we are gathered here" "# Irene, the good child # she'll be 16 today" "# Irene, the good child # we all congratulate her" "# like we are gathered here bravo bravo" "Königin (Frau König), you're fabulous, a thousand thanks" "I'm not in good voice today but you sang wonderfully" "this smells awful who gave it to you, Irene?" "I did oh, this smells wonderful" "Baba!" "but this is nice." "I've wanted this for a long time it's certainly not a cheap perfume the man at drugstore told me you could also use it as mouth-wash" "you, Renka beautiful, real silk feels like velvet who gave it to you?" "I did doesn't this suit you either?" "I don't know, I'll have to try it on no Grandma, that's my underwear" "Baba will ruin it" "# silk, silk, sizzling on my knee it'll sizzle soon, but somewhere else # silk, silk, sizzling on my knee" "Grandma?" "do you wear silk underwear too?" "at my age one doesn't need silk underwear anymore one needs wool against rheumatism but why does Irene need some?" "first, she doesn't have rheumatism and second, she's of an age now where a girl has to look after her dowry so one gets silk underwear because of the bridegroom?" "yes that is, no!" "this is a tradition among us an old custom" "do you understand, Whisky?" "one wears silk underwear for the men by the way, those matters are none of your business, you smart aleck do your homework the grown-ups always say that when it gets tricky" "Grandma, isn't this beautiful fits perfectly" "Irene!" "you're of the "men-age" now (grown-up)" "I wish I were of a marriageable age too" "I'll never get married but I all the more a pity, nobody will have you we'll see about that" "the messenger brought a telegram give it to me, it's for me it's for Miss Irene" "from Mummy tenderest congratulations - arriving today" " Mummy" "Mummy's coming, Mummy's coming" "Mummy's coming!" "now that I know that I ... shall be home again in 10 minutes all of a sudden I'm afraid yes, really oh John, how shall I tell my children?" "without any fuss just grab the bulls by their horns" "my sweet and tender lambs # welcome taratata # welcome taratata # welcome taratata" "# dearest mother, be welcome # dearest mother, be welcome # well well come come # well well come come # well well come come # well well come come" "now once again" "Mummy!" "Mummy's here!" "Mummy's here!" "how wonderful that you've come" "I congratulate with all my heart, my dear child thank you now stop that love scene, I'm here too good day, Mummy that kiss wasn't exactly loving" "Mummy, who's the gentleman?" "well, this is Sir John who was so kind to see me home in his car look at the "mess" [meaning also:" "Christmas presents] my children and this is Sir John who was worried about your mother in a very touching way were you ill, Mummy?" "now, dear, I've never relaxed so well like I did in these holidays" "I've noticed it at once" "Miss Baba has sharp eyes how do you know my name?" "your mother talked only of the little Baba during the whole trip and of the big Irene whose birthday is today" "I congratulate with all my heart, Miss Irene thank you" "Sir John, won't you join us for our birthday tea?" "we're having such a cake if the birthday child permits it, with pleasure but I think Sir John isn't interested in a family tea you can let him have a piece of your birthday cake alright since he's been so nice to Mummy" "I think so too so, we'll expect you at 5 o'clock good-bye, Sir John" "good-bye and be on time, the cake won't wait" " I think he's great." " isn't he a beautiful car but I didn't mean the car ["der" Wagen], I meant the man but Baba!" "I wonder why we've invited a total stranger to my birthday and why have you told him so much about us, Mummy?" "but child, after spending so much time with a man ... you've spent much time with Sir John?" "don't pump Mummy with your questions!" "come along, children" "Mummy, what did you bring us?" "don't be so curious" "open up, Renka wait a bit!" "but I can't wait!" "I'm so curious!" "this way it's much faster" "a "weeping box"" "Mummy!" "Mummy, you're sweet so are you" "play at least a snappy hit tune, Irene # love is like a mystery # which is wonderful and unfathomable" "Grandma, mother arrived with a smart gentleman didn't she, Irene?" "I don't know anything about him being smart, I didn't even look at him you only have eyes for Philip, that stupid schoolboy" "Baba!" "Mummy, but it's not my fault!" "I like your man and I don't like hers" "Grandma, when you see Mummy's cavalier, you'll swoon wanna bet?" "he'll be here soon, because I've invited him to tea she really embarrassed Mummy, hasn't she, Mummy?" "and he was polite and couldn't refuse you're nuts!" "he was glad that I invited him!" "he didn't want to part from Mummy" "Baba!" "you've grown totally wild!" " it's high time..." " that a man comes into this house or you go into a reformatory school don't laugh, Irene's perfectly right you need a strict authority" "Mummy, please, not to a reformatory school" "Irene's mean she's just furious at me because I think Philip's so stupid he doesn't care what you think about him now stop it make peace shake hands well?" "come on!" "you brats now go to Frau König and help her unpack" "Irene the keys are in my bag" "the little girl's right this house needs a man" "what's he like?" "who?" "the smart gentleman who couldn't bear to part from you but Mama" "I don't dare tell you you can tell me alright" "I'm so terribly happy and I had already put these things behind me and now..." "I'm in love like a teenager aren't you surprised at all at what's happened to me?" "no, my child" "I think it's only natural you've lived a lonely life long enough, and time passes so quickly" "I'm really anxious to meet him my God, it's late already, he'll be here any minute, and I'm not dressed what shall I wear?" "the blue, the striped, the flowery, the dotted what shall I wear?" "which suits me better?" "this one or that one?" "I have nothing to wear!" "Irene, help me, what shall I wear?" "this one or that one?" "or the checkered dress?" "for whom do you show off so much?" "But he's coming, he is!" "he ... he... the most divine of them all because of that elderly gentleman" "Sir John isn't elderly!" "he is his hair has turned totally grey at his temples that's exactly what I like he's a real man at least not such a "half-portion"" "like your Philip thank God Mummy has better taste than you have what rubbish are you talking!" "what business has Mummy with that gentleman?" "well, I'll find out soon enough you infant!" "I wonder why I'm talking to you at all about those things you're far too young age only matters with horses even if you explode, Mummy has a crush on Sir John out of the question!" "Mummy doesn't like any other man except Father you know how happy she was with him, how he spoilt her, carried her on his hands she told me herself the other day that she'd never fall in love with another man" "well, I don't know but I know all the better!" "Baba, that's Sir John already he's arrived, and how do I look!" "get away from that mirror, we must get dressed and go downstairs" "Frau König, isn't it?" "I've heard a lot about you" "I hope only good things don't be so sure about that we all are just like the Lord created us yes sir" "if you please" "Sir John" "I've heard a lot about you" "I hope only good things don't be so sure about that we all are just like the Lord created us that's what Frau König just told me" "of course I'm late again terrible first I don't know what to wear and when I know I take such a long time dressing it is I who must excuse myself" "I've come a few minutes too early" "I couldn't stand waiting to see you again" "Jennifer" "I'm so happy" "Irene!" "Irene, I beg you, get ready!" "say, is my hair alright?" "yes yes, but come, they'll finish the whole cake" "Baba?" "what is it?" "I beg you, behave decently for once today do it for Mummy my word of honour but come now" "Baba, pull yourself together!" " sheep!" " yes sir she-goat!" "you're not to call me she-goat all the time!" "you're not to call me sheep all the time!" " sheep!" " she-goat" "Baba!" "Irene!" "Good day, Sir John delighted, Sir John good day, my ladies if you permit, a small present" "open up Renka, open up!" "Baba!" "I mean, my little sister open the box" "but this is beautiful!" "thank you very much, Sir John" "I've wanted to have this for such a long time your mother told me about it" "Mummy!" "sweetest Mummy is this real?" "of course" "I see what 's your job, by the way?" "well, what would you like me to be?" "hmm, officer yes, you'd look great in a uniform and Mummy adores officers don't you, Mummy?" "but Baba, that's natural our father was an officer" "in real life he was much better looking he was the handsomest officer in his regiment says Mummy because we didn't know him but it's as if we knew him" "Mummy talks about Daddy in such a lively way she makes us believe he's still living with us." "children drink your tea, it'll get cold" "here you are" "Sir John" "Irene already wears silk underwear" "Baba, this doesn't interest Sir John why shouldn't it?" "he's a man" "Baba!" "I beg you, Baba!" "Grandma told us women wear silk underwear to please men" "I never told such a thing!" "what must Sir John think of me!" "the best, Grandma, the very best" "are you married, Sir John?" "no really" "do you have any children?" "no, unfortunately I haven't you're well off, there's nothing but trouble with children" "Mummy can "sing you a song" about it à propos "sing you a song"" "would you like to hear the latest smash hit, performed by the "Lawrence Sisters"?" "at the piano a "queen" (Königin)" "Königin" "Königin" "they're charming" "Königin, come here!"

"we'd all be very pleased if I may suggest something ... silence!" "Sir John has the floor" "I have a box at the opera tonight would you all do me the favour and be my guests?" "Königin, go to church and pray for us won't you join us, Madame?" "well, but I have nothing to wear" "Grandma always says that come, Grandma, I'll help you we'll wear the blue dress, or the green one" "my girl" "Mummy" "charming girls" "I realize that you've been very happy with him no" "I wasn't but the children just said... because I told them so" "I see should I have burdened them with ugly things?" "I did right, didn't I?" "probably probably yes should I have told them that he... that he... was reckless... reckless?" "I was still almost a child when we got married only later I realized... he was a gambler" "he gambled away a fortune it was a terrible time" "I made him scenes but that doesn't change anything" "all of a sudden... he died" "I found myself with two small children and a bunch of unpaid bills of exchange all this the children don't know of course" "you sweet, you brave little woman you brought up two children paid your husband's debts founded a business firm made it world-famous played the great adventuress" "and all the time you're a little chicklet inside one wants to care for one wants to spoil" "I love you" "[# Gioconda: suicidio]" "# in this terrible hour... # what else remains to me... # than death by my own hand."

"music always has this effect on the child" "Irene it's over" "yes, it's over come on" "you're so changed, Irene has something happened?" "what could have happened?" "I don't know did your party last long last night?" "we were at the opera so that's why you have that upset stomach my father says he gets a belly ache each time he goes to see an opera" "I can't check whether this is true, but it doesn't matter anyway, I wouldn't allow my children to go to the opera just like I find the theatre and the cinema depraved what would you say if my mother got married again?" "terrible it would be ridiculous a woman with two children love is youth's prerogative!" "love belongs to us!" "you must enlighten your mother at once what if she doesn't listen to me?" "then I'll talk to her" "Irene, only yesterday my moral principles would have prevented me from telling you that I love you what this means only our children and grandchildren will fully understand." "oh my, where tears flow the lips mustn't be idle you!" "and you call yourself my boyfriend!" "you're the same scoundrel, you're just as ruthless" "my dear children" "you've written a composition on the subject "My Family"" "the best notes I awarded to..." "Edith Farthgill and eh..." "Irene Lawrence" "Irene?" "Irene!" "yes please" "I guess you're still thinking about your birthday party please listen when I speak to you" " Gesundheit - thank you" "Irene, read out your composition on "The Family"" "my family the family is a state within a state a bit louder please" "the parents are the family's basic pillars on which the children can find support in each circumstance of life don't read so haltingly, Irene the family can be compared to a ring in its closeness the members stand by each other" "everyone is prepared to make sacrifices love and fidelity, in good and in bad times" "you've never read so bad before" "I can't go on" "I can't go on" "I've changed my mind about this subject but Irene!" "you cannot change your mind from one day to the next!" "but I can!" "I can!" "hallo, hallo, Baba, Baba you're to see the Head Mistress at once" "what's the matter? "thick air"?" "[thunderstorm ahead]" "I think so coming" "she's regaining her consciousness drink this" "come in" "The Head Mistress has called for me?" "you sister just fainted" "Renka, what's the matter when your sister feels better, you'll take her home yes Mam no thank you, Head Mistress, I..." "I can go home on my own very well" " perhaps it'll be better?" " no no thank you, Head Mistress, I can do very well on my own thank you what's the matter with Irene?" "she had ... eh alcohol doesn't become her what?" "I mean, we celebrated Irene's birthday last night" "I see by the way, it didn't have any effect on me" " is that so?" " Head Mistress" "what did I hear?" "our Irene is ill?" "is it very bad?" "let me feel your pulse don't touch me!" "what's the matter?" "I hate you!" "I hate you!" "I hate you!" "Irene let us try... to have a calm conversation about the feelings you have about me" "I don't want to have a conversation with you!" "go away!" "go away, will you!" "you have no business in our home" "I think this is for your mother to decide" "I forbid you to marry mother!" "I forbid you!" "yes, I forbid you!" "we'll get married all the same we won't show any consideration yes, but... but mother doesn't love you mother loves us" "she only loves our father" "your father died 12 years ago and your mother, till now, has only lived for the two of you she has a right to be happy once more" "Mummy's only happy with us you've persuaded Mummy you're taking our Mummy away from us" "Irene you want to be a great artist one day you can achieve this only if you have a human, understanding heart let's try and forget all this and try to become good friends, for Mummy's sake" "come give me your hand" "if you marry Mummy... then ... then what?" "are you going to shoot me?" "you'll see!" "you'll see!" "well, the two of us certainly can't go on this way" "what's all this about?" "Irene has forbidden you to marry me?" "she has" "oh my God" "Madame" "Lady Burley would like you to attend personally to her yes coming" "well, the young lady had an attack of hysterics, to put it mildly" "Irene's isn't hysterical she is if you had heard her you'd have had the same impression" "one always finds that in a human being what one has been looking for probably you've let her feel your superiority but darling" "I've never before felt so helpless with another person in my life" "Irene has an excellent character" "Jennifer" "I don't want to hurt you but I cannot condone Irene's behaviour, I must warn you even this is quite unnecessary" "I know my daughter this is what everybody believes and then they are surprised those aren't surprises" "do you mean to tell me that you were prepared for your daughter's whims?" "those aren't whims!" "but they are, Irene is jealous, morbidly jealous she loves me she'd let herself get killed for my sake" " Madame, Lady Burley's waiting - yes I know" "it's no use how could I have been so blind?" "a woman with a marriageable daughter" "I had a reason for being afraid, because of happiness" "I should have listened to my inner voice but it isn't too late yet thank God" "Jennifer!" "you're about to lose your head" "I only thought of myself" "I forgot everything else around me while I amused myself my child has been torturing herself" "Jennifer, you mustn't talk yourself into such false feelings you won't be able to help Irene with that attitude false feelings, is that what you call it?" "John, we don't understand each other anymore you don't have any children, and..." " but Jennifer..." " no, don't say anything" "I know now what I have to do what do you mean by that?" "that you chose Irene?" "yes" "I wasn't prepared for that this is indeed... a surprise" "I'll leave for Paris with the night train perhaps you'll think it over once more whether two grown-up persons don't have a right to fight for their happiness" "good night my child sleep well" "Grandma please say it isn't true" "Mummy won't get married again, won't she?" "she won't do it?" "well, don't you want her to... get married?" "No!" "no!" "no!" "did it never occur to you that Mummy might get married again?" "but other women get married again too" "Mummy won't!" "did it never occur to you that Mummy's still young... and very pretty... and very lonely?" "yes but... but she couldn't possibly marry a total stranger but Sir John isn't a stranger he is she didn't even know him four weeks ago when one's in love, time is unimportant" "she loves him?" "of course she loves him but Grandma!" "Grandma... one cannot love twice in life but Grandma" "Grandma, then... then there isn't any fidelity" "Grandma!" "Grandma, you've always told me... how much Mummy loved Father" "Grandma!" "Grandma!" "I only hope Father doesn't learn about all this how much he's being betrayed" "well" "good night, my child sleep well # why do you cry, you gentle woman of God # do you cry because of the dark-blue violets # do you cry for the roses you've plucked" "# ?" "go to sleep, and don't repent # with this wonderful bouquet ?" "# I shall dance the whole night through ?" "# those roses ?" "# ?" "and forget me not did I have my night supper yet, Königin?" "you had, but you haven't said your night prayers, Desdemona come on" "I'm tired, going to bed, close both my little eyes" "Father, keep watch over my little bed" "Amen" "Amen sleep well, children good night go to a nunnery, Ophelia!" "shut your trap..." "Hamlet" "good evening, Mama good evening, my child" "what's the matter with you?" "you're so nervous where... where's Irene?" "the children are already asleep a good thing too, last night they went to bed too late really?" "very well, then I'll tell them tomorrow" "what are you going to tell them?" "it's all over with Corbett because of Irene?" "my poor child" "come here" "it seems to me... you are MY poor child" "you know how much I love your children how much I worry about their happiness and peace but this is about the happiness and peace of my own child" "I cannot be happy when... when my child suffers you abandon your happiness very fast or you don't love the man the way you told me yesterday but I do, Mama" "I love him then the sacrifice you want to make for Irene is wrong my child you'll never get over this renunciation only youth can afford such renunciations you might find me hard, my child... but it'll be a mistake never to be amended" "if you give in to Irene right now how shall she ever be up to later challenges in life if you let her get away with her unhealthy egotism now?" " Mama!" " Egotism, that's what it is!" "at 9.30 he'll leave London then it's high time" "there are decisions one must make without any consideration for others, not even for one's own children" "I should have advised you against your first marriage but at the time I was just as weak as you were going to be right now because of Irene" " beloved Mother - go away, there's no time for this now" "Frau König" "Frau König" "Frau König call a taxi, quick quick, Frau König the train won't wait" "Jennifer" "I couldn't leave" "John" "Renka?" "are you already asleep?" "no how the girls at school will be amazed when they hear that we'll get a new father we are not going to have one!" "he isn't our father not yet but tomorrow, he'll be no Never never never you know what I mean but you shouldn't say it that he's our father alright, step-father but that's no reason to get so upset" "I wonder how they'll manage before they move into their new home will he move in with us and sleep in her bedroom?" "hmm?" "Molly's parents share a bedroom too at first they had a really wide bed now they bought two separate beds for the room it's supposed to be healthier two beds or one?" "that's the question you?" "do you think they'll have a baby?" "what did you say?" "do you think they'll have a baby?" "don't ever say that again!" "don't ever say that again!" "Baba!" "Irene!"
