How long shall I have the use of my faculties? (RHEINHARDT: You may well live until some experimentation---- Yes, the subject is being much attended to.) Oh, Rheinhardt, you are my friend. How long can I calculate upon? Two months? One month? (RHEINHARDT: Longer than that.) Six months? (RHEINHARDT assents.) Then I must start at once. I can do most of it! (Coming across to VERA.) Thank you. Miss Carlyon, for letting me know. Forgive me for what I said--what I tried to say. I did not, of course, know how painful it was. I shall always--I am privileged now, am I not?--I shall always love and honour you, and be grateful for the anxiety you showed to save me from what you thought a danger. But I shall be happier when I get to work.
