00:15It feels like we're banishing her.
00:17They leave their childhood here.
00:21You've been a great comfort to me, Nicholas.
00:25You are a sinful girl.
00:27You will kneel here until these candles burn out.
00:33Oh, sorry.
00:34Okay, sorry. It's fine.
00:37I feel something's happening.
00:39Well, that would be probable.
00:43You're useless.
00:45You're a completely useless man. You know that.
00:47I do.
00:51I see your face.
00:53For the first time in my life, the world makes sense.
00:58I close my eyes and you are here.

01:49I have more to say to you than would take a lifetime.
01:51A beauty.
01:52A mystery.
01:53Everything that is beautiful to me, is bound up in you.
02:08It's bound up in you.
02:17What are you doing?
02:18I write my love pulp.
02:20What is the matter with everyone in this house?
