[CLARA]

Clara ...



[GIORGIO]

Clara ...

I cried.



[CLARA]

I cried.



[BOTH]

Imagine that, a soldier who cries.



[CLARA]

I had to hide my eyes, so the others on the train

That carried me away from you would think I was asleep.



[GIORGIO]

[spoken] Music?



[DOCTOR]

[spoken] That's Signora Fosca playing.



[COLONEL]

[spoken] My cousin. I have no family and neither does she.

She is in such poor health, it's a continual worry.



[DOCTOR]

[spoken] That's her place setting, but she stays in her room most days.

Perhaps soon she'll be well enough to join us for a meal.



[RIZZOLLI]

[spoken] She eats like a sparrow.



[TORASSO]

[spoken] My apologies, sir.

The comparison has struck me as funny.

A sparrow seems to eat more than Signora Fosca. A pity it is ...



[COLONEL (to Giorgio)]

[spoken] My cousin loves to read - it's her only passion, really.

I can't find enough books for her.



[GIORGIO]

[spoken] I also love reading.

I've brought a few of my favorite books down.

Perhaps I could lend them to Signora Fosca,

though I can't promise they will appeal to her.



[COLONEL]

[spoken] Young man, she's been driven to reading military handbooks.

I've no doubt she will welcome anything in print.



[AUGENTI]

[spoken] Post arrived!



[RIZZOLLI]

[spoken] Hand it round Augenti.

Nothing for me again? It's been two weeks.



[AUGENTI]

[spoken] It smells to me as if Captain Bachetti has a letter from an admirer.
