A Dorothy L. Sayers Mystery1987
[Peter is visiting Harriet in prison, meeting her for the first time]
Lord Peter Wimsey:
But, um, you're not opposed to matrimony on principle? I mean if offered on terms not already compromised, and by the right person, naturally.
Harriet Vane:
Oh, no.
Lord Peter Wimsey:
Oh, that's good.
Harriet Vane:
Might I ask why?
Lord Peter Wimsey:
Makes it easier for me, you see.
Harriet Vane:
[after a pause] Have I got this right? You are proposing marriage to me?
Lord Peter Wimsey:
Absolutely right.
Harriet Vane:
[laughing] Do you do this all the time, Lord Peter?
Lord Peter Wimsey:
Only when I'm serious.
Harriet Vane:
And you're serious now?
Lord Peter Wimsey:
Oh, I know I've got a silly face, but I can't help that. And I am. Serious, I mean.
