Manders Monologue from Ghosts

From Ghosts by Henrik Ibsen

You sinned greatly against your husband;--that you recognise by raising yonder memorial to him. Recognise now, also, how you have sinned against your son--there may yet be time to lead him back from the paths of error. Turn back yourself, and save what may yet be saved in him. For verily, Mrs. Alving, you are a guilt-laden mother! This I have thought it my duty to say to you.
