  • Fred Jesson: You've been a long way away.
  • Laura Jesson: Yes.
  • Fred Jesson: Thank you for coming back to me.
  • Fred Jesson: [playing the crossword puzzle] You're a poetry addict. See if you can help me over this. It's Keats. 'When I behold, upon the night's starr'd face / Huge cloudy symbols of a high _______.' Something that's seven letters.
  • Laura Jesson: Romance, I think. I'm almost sure it is. 'Huge cloudy symbols of a high romance.' It will be in the Oxford Book of English Verse.
  • Fred Jesson: No, it's right I'm sure. It fits in with 'delirium' and 'Baluchistan.
  • Fred Jesson: [Last word]
  • [to Laura]
  • Fred Jesson: Thank you for coming back to me.
  • [Laura weeps in Fred's arms]
  • Fred Jesson: Come and sit by the fire in the library and relax. You may help me with the Times crossword.
  • Laura Jesson: You have the most peculiar ideas of relaxation.
  • Laura Jesson: Circus or Pantomime?
  • Fred Jesson: Neither. We'll thrash them both, lock them in the attic and go to the pictures by ourselves.
  • Fred Jesson: Whatever your dream was, it wasn't a very happy one, was it?
