From Honor: A Play in Four Acts by Hermann Sudermann

female · dramatic · 53 sec

There is just one thing I ask of you--at least keep this house and its surroundings sacred. (Kurt: We'll do that with the help of the Lord!) Do you know what they are whispering around the factory? That you are paying far too much attention to Robert Heinecke's sister--that you---- (Kurt: Yes, and you allow yourself to carry the gossip of the backstairs about----) Kurt, not that tone! I defended you from Mama and Papa to-day. The next time I shan't do it. And remember one thing: Robert has come back.--If he finds his sister guilty--don't worry, I wouldn't dare think it!--But the girl is frivolous and vain! If it were so--and you were to blame, Kurt, take care! He would break you in pieces!
