You See I Am No Ghost - Andrew Lloyd Webber, The Original London Cast Of 'The Woman In White', Angela Christian

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.
