Vennema Monologue from Louise

From Louise by J. H. Speenhoff

Then come back with me. Come back to us. You know my motive for coming. Won't you come back home with me? Everything is in perfect readiness for you: your little room, the flowers, the trees ... everything. Why not? We have arranged everything. Nothing will be lacking for your welcome, your comfort. Later on? Did it ever occur to you that there may be no later on? You may not find us then. We are getting old, your mother and I. Come, Louise. Come. Think of the happiness. Don't think of them. Those who are sincerely friendly to us, will continue to be so. The rest don't count. Ah, if we only could have you back, my child!
