"You See I Am No Ghost"

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.
