Страница 255 - ... (clasping his hands). And this is the mother of my child ! How could you conceal such a thing from me ? Gina. It was wrong of me, I know. I ought to have told you about it long ago. Hjalmar. You ought to have told me at the first, — then I should have known what sort of a woman you were.
Страница 145 - Genius will render you great. May virtue render you beloved ! Remove the awful distance between you and ordinary men by kind and gentle .manners. Deal gently with their inferiority, and be convinced they will respect you as much and like you more. Why conceal the real goodness that flows in your heart?
Страница 205 - ... that you were playing me false? NORA That was nothing to me. I didn't care in the least about you.
