The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Mrs. Warren's Profession by George Bernard Shaw: MRS WARREN. Yes, dearie. [She laughs indulgently at Praed's
gravity, and pats him on the cheek as she passes him on her way
to the porch]. Dont be cross, Praddy. [She follows Vivie into
the cottage].
CROFTS [furtively] I say, Praed.
PRAED. Yes.
CROFTS. I want to ask you a rather particular question.
PRAED. Certainly. [He takes Mrs Warren's chair and sits close
to Crofts].
CROFTS. Thats right: they might hear us from the window. Look
here: did Kitty every tell you who that girl's father is?
