Martha Farnsworth : That dress is very becoming, Miss Edwina.
Edwina : Thank you.
Alicia : There might be other attractive shoulders here if we were all permitted to wear such dresses.
Martha Farnsworth : I wouldn't say it's entirely suitable to wear at a young ladies' school; though, we know Miss Edwina's accustomed to town society with different views. I would suggest that we - change the subject. And let Miss Edwina draw her shawl.
[Edwina covers her bare shoulders with her shawl]
Martha Farnsworth : Yes. That will avoid anyones speculation on the subject.

Martha Farnsworth : Miss Alicia made the pie herself.

John McBurney : In the middle of battle with all the iron flying overhead, me first thought was to bury me-self.
Edwina : But, when you couldn't, you ran.
John McBurney : I did. I surely deed I did.
Edwina : That wasn't very brave of you to run.
John McBurney : Maybe not. But, it was smart, I think.
Edwina : Because you're alive?
John McBurney : And now I've met you.
Edwina : You don't even know me.
-
John McBurney : How did you end up in this place?
Edwina : Why are you so interested in me?
John McBurney : I just recollect you and I are both a little out of place here. I bet you're the independent sort - and the other girls, they don't even know how to get close to you. And then, of course, there's your looks.
Edwina : That doesn't matter to me.
John McBurney : Oh, you can bet it matters to other people. Sorry to tell you and I hope you don't mind me telling you; but, well, in all my travels, I've never come across such a delicate beauty as yours.
