[During an air-raid drill]
Delysia:
Guinevere, I'm scared!
Guinevere Pettigrew:
It's just a drill, I'm sure it's just a drill.
Delysia:
But it won't always be, will it? We're going to war, aren't we?
Guinevere Pettigrew:

Marriage, children and a house of our own. He died, in the mud in France. A good, solid man. You would call him dull, no doubt, but he smiled whenever he saw me and we could've built a life on that. Your heart knows the truth, Delysia. Trust it.
