Why, good heavens, he must have been completely out of his mind! And I suppose you thought it best not to give it back to him, Hedda? (HEDDA: No, he did not get it.) But of course you told him that we had it? (HEDDA: No. Did you tell Mrs. Elvsted?) No; I thought I had better not. But you ought to have told him. Fancy, if, in desperation, he should go and do himself some injury! Let me have the manuscript, Hedda! I will take it to him at once. Where is it?
