"I wish my smile was your favorite kind of smile,
I wish the way I dressed, was your favorite kind of style."
D: I have fought against my better judgement, my family's expectation, the inferiority of your birth, my rank and circumstances - all these things - but I am willing to put them aside and ask you to end my agony.
E: I don't understand.
D: I love you. Most ardently. Please do me the honor of accepting my hand.
E: Sir, I appreciate the struggle you have been through, and I am very sorry to have caused you pain. Believe me, it was unconsciously done.
D: Is this your reply?
E: Yes, sir.
D: Are you laughing at me?
E: No.
D: Are you rejecting me?
E: I'm sure that the feelings which, as you've told me have hindered your regard, will help you in overcoming it.
D: Might I ask why, with so little endeavor at civility, I am thus repulsed?
E: And I might as well enquire why, with so evident a design of insulting me, you chose to tell me that you liked me against your better judgment.
