Quotes 

• Lucy Campbell : [reading the inscription in Merriman's cigarette case]  "For P.J.M., from Lucy. Dublin, 1895."

  Sean Merriman : Probably a present from an old flame. I think it was one of those love affairs that went wrong. Anyhow, he never married. And there's a quotation. I think it's from the Song of Solomon.

  Lucy Campbell : [reads the quotation]  "Until the day break, and the shadows flee away."

• Lucy Campbell : You *will* come back?

  Sean Merriman : Yes... I'd like to, if I may.

• Lucy Campbell : [admiring cigarette case]  It's beautiful, isn't it?

  Sean Merriman : Hmm? Oh, that - yes. It was left to me by an uncle, my father's brother. I've always liked to keep it. As a matter of fact, that's why I was interested in that tapestry on the stairs. My uncle went to China. In fact, he died there. That is a memento from the days that he lived in Dublin.
