Lila Lee:
Is that wine?
Lemora:
Sort of.
Lila Lee:
I don't touch spirits. It's un-Christian.
Lemora:
It's very rude not to do as another does when you're under his roof. If you don't enjoy our company, you can go back to where you were last night. Drink.
[hypnotic gaze compels Lila, and she drinks from the goblet, as do the children]

Lemora:
Our guest is a singer. A very good one. Perhaps we can persuade her to sing a song for us.
[Lila shakes her head, but is led to the front]

Lemora:
Don't be shy now. We will appreciate anything you can give us.
[sits down behind the children]

Lemora:
Sing!
Lila Lee:
[singing, like an ailing angel, getting more and more dizzy]
Just a closer walk with thee,
[the children cackle like hyenas]

Lila Lee:
precious Jesus is my plea, daily walking across to thee, let it be, dear Lord, let it be, I am weak, but thou art strong, Jesus keep me from all wrong,
[struggling:]

Lila Lee:
help me satisfy this song,
[stumbling, and Lemora catches her as she falls]

Lila Lee:
So hard... I'm dizzy...
Lemora:
The drink has done that to you. Isn't it nice? Feeling better? Good. Now let's have some music.
[switches on gramophone]

Lemora:
Do you like to dance?
Lila Lee:
No,
[remembers about manners:]

Lila Lee:
I mean, I... I never have.
[scratchy record plays, Lemora dances with her, and the children circle-dance around them]

Lemora:
[swinging Lila]
See? Give your body up to the music!
Lila Lee:
[gets spun around]
The Reverend... will die if he knows I...!
Lemora:
[exclaims]
The real sin is for a girl to deny herself life and joy. Especially if she's as lovely as you!
Lila Lee:
[dizzily]
Vanity is a sin...!
[and then she is spun out of control, and falls down]
