I am very grateful to you, Sansuta, for coming here to meet me.
gpt
I am afraid I have done wrong.
human
Wrong! What can you mean?
gpt
That I am deceiving my father, my kind father; but it is for the last time.
human
The last time?
gpt
Yes, I have determined that this shall be our last meeting. I could not endure my father's reproaches, if he knew that I betrayed his confidence.
human
Do you doubt my love for you, Sansuta? Will it not make up for Oluski's anger?
gpt
Warren!
human
But why talk of Oluski's anger? Rather speak of my love. Surely you do not doubt it?
gpt
Sansuta does not doubt you, but she is unhappy.
human
Unhappy! Why?
gpt
Because an Indian girl would make but a poor wife to a white gentleman.
human
If Sansuta cared for you less, she would not have been here this morning; she would not have seen you again.
gpt
Come, come, dearest, you alarm yourself without reason. Need I tell you how much I love you--how I have always loved you? Have we not grown up together? What more natural than love like mine?
human
But your father--
gpt
He will not object. Why should he? Is he not Oluski's best friend?
human
Yes, they are friends, but still--
gpt
And, after all, dearest, we need not tell them of our love until we are sure of their consent. In the meantime, let us think only of ourselves. You have not yet told me what I longed to hear.
human
What is that?
gpt
The whispering assurance that your heart is mine?
