Oscar Wilde - The Canterville Ghost

please [pli:z] owe [əυ] laugh [lα:f]

"Please don't ask me, Cecil, I cannot tell you. Poor Sir Simon! I owe him a great deal. Yes, don't laugh, Cecil, I really do. He made me see what Life is, and what Death signifies, and why Love is stronger than both."

The Duke rose and kissed his wife lovingly (герцог поднялся и поцеловал свою жену с любовью).

"You can have your secret as long as I have your heart (ты можешь хранить свой секрет, пока я могу владеть твоим сердцем)," he murmured (прошептал он).

"You have always had that (оно всегда было у тебя), Cecil."

"And you will tell our children some day, won't you (но ты расскажешь нашим детям когда-нибудь, не правда ли)?"

Virginia blushed (покраснела).
