Brideshead Revisited1981
[Lord Marchmain is now very close to death. Doctor Grant has said that the least little shock will kill him. Julia has sent for Father McKay to administer the Last Rites]
Charles Ryder:
You said just now that the least shock would kill him. What could be worst for a man who fears death, as he does, than to have a priest brought to him? A priest he turned out when he had the strength.
Doctor Grant:
I think it may kill him.
Charles Ryder:
Then you will forbid it?
Doctor Grant:
I have no authority to forbid anything. I can only give an opinion.
[Doctor Grant is called away to attend to Lord Marchmain]
Charles Ryder:
Cara, what do you think?
Cara:
I don't want him made unhappy. That is all there is to hope for now: that he will die without knowing it. But I should like the priest there, all the same.
Charles Ryder:
But will you try and persuade Julia to keep him away until the end? Then he can do no harm.
Cara:
I will ask her to leave Alex happy, yes.
