MILLER, MRS. MILLER, LOUISA, FERDINND.
(All speaking together).
FERDINAND
(rushes in, terrified, and out of breath) Has my father
been here?
LOUISA
(starts back in horror) His father? Gracious heaven!
MRS. MILLER
(wringing her hands) The minister here? Then it's all
over with us!
MILLER
(laughs bitterly) Thank God! Thank God! Now comes our
benefit!
FERDINAND
(rushing towards LOUISA, and clasping her in his arms) Mine thou art, though heaven and hell were placed between us!
LOUISA
I am doomed! Speak, Ferdinand! Did you not utter that dreaded name? Your father?
FERDINAND
Be not alarmed! the danger has passed! I have thee again! again thou hast me! Let me regain my breath on thy dear bosom. It was a dreadful hour!
