Mickey. Don't shoot Eddie,please. He's your
brother.You hada twin brother. I couldn't
afford to keep both of you. His mother
couldn't have kids. I agreedto give one of you away!
Mickey
You! You! Whydidn't you give me away mam?
I could have been. I couldhave been him! No!
Narrator
And do we blame superstition for what came to pass?
Or could it be what we, theEnglish, have come to know as class?
Didyou ever hear thestory of theJohnstone twins,
as likeeach other as two new pins
how one was kept and one given away,
how theywere born, and theydied,
on theself same day?
