From The Man from Home by Booth Tarkington

female · anguished · 45 sec

I am bound to Almeric in his misfortune, I am bound to him by his misfortune. (She goes on with a sorrowful eagerness.) He has to bear a name that will be a by-word of disgrace, and it is my duty to help him bear it, to help him make it honorable again; to inspire him in the struggle that lies before him to rise above it by his own efforts, to make a career for himself; to make the world forget the disgrace of his father in his own triumphs--in the product of his own work-- PIKE (aghast). Work!
