The Browning Version Page #10

---

will find it in your hearts

to forgive me...

for... having let you down.

I shall not find it

so easy to forgive myself.

That is all.

Good-bye.

[ Whispering ]

Do you think he meant all that?

[ Loud Applause ]

- [ Cheering ]

- [ Boy ] Good old Crock.! Good old Crock.!

[ Loud Cheering And Applause ]

And now I come to --

[ Cheering, Applause Continue ]

And now I come to --

[ Boy ]

Good old Crock.! Good old Crock.!

Good old Crock!

- Oh, sir.

- Yes, Taplow?

- I, um -- I was in your house this morning.

- Yes, Taplow.

I hope you don't mind.

You see, I was interested.

I think it's rather good.

Do you, Taplow?

Well, it's a jolly sight better

than old Browning's, anyway.

You must not be disrespectful

to one of England's greatest poets, Taplow.

You don't think that's bad, eh?

Do you know, sir,

I found it quite exciting.

It's like a play.

I mean, a real play.

I mean, a modern play.

I read it all through.

It's a pity it's not finished.

Do you think so, Taplow?

Why did you chuck it away, sir?

It hardly seemed worth finishing.

Oh, but it is, sir.

It really is.

Oh, well, good-bye, sir.

Oh, by the way, sir,

as it's too late now to alter anything...

have I got my promotion?

That is a highly

irregular request, Taplow.

That information will be

duly forwarded to your parents...

by the headmaster

in your school report.

Yes, sir.

Just thought I'd ask.

Oh, well, good luck.

Good luck to you, Taplow.

- And Taplow.

- Sir?

If you have any regard for me...

you will refrain from blowing yourself up

next term in the science upper fifth.

Oh!

Oh, thank you, sir.

Thanks awfully.
