Anne: Walter Hartright - I remember you! Walter: Are you of this world? Have I imagined you? Anne: You see I am no ghost before you. I am flesh and blood, believe your eyes. Kind sir, my name is Anne, Anne Catherick, and believe my words, I tell no lies. Limerich was my home in childhood, though I didn't live here long. Locked away while still a girl, allthough I did nothing wrong. Imprisoned in a dark asylum by a man of guile and treachery. The truth will see the light, I vow it! Though he thinks that he can silence me. I told you that I have a secret - one I cannot share with you.
I must finale what I seek to spare her what I've been through! Ahhr! I told you of my cruel tormentor. When I think of him I'm filled with shame. I'll tell you who he is this instant, if you swear you won't forget his name. Walter: I swear! Anne: Sir Percival Glyde Sir Percival Glyde Walter: Sir Percival Glyde... No, please wait! Marian: Mr. Hartright, there's a urgent matter we must speak of right away. Walter: Pray it isn't serious? Marian: This is hard for me to say. In the days before you came here, you were out of money, out of spirits then.
