Dan Peggotty:
[Peggotty sits down with David Copperfield to tell him the fate of Emily, who had run off with Steerforth]
Master Davy... It was in Naples, by the sea. There he wearied of her, and left her. When she knowed she was abandoned, her heart died in her. That snake - his servant - insulted her. Told her he'd been left there by his master to marry her. Something cast off for a servant's use. She tried to die by her own hand. So he locked her up, imprisoned her. And she, my poor lass, when night come, she forced a window and escaped to the shore. Dan Peggotty:
[Peggotty continues talking, as scene changes to show Emily struggling along a rocky, windswept shore]
She fought herself home. Wandering on the Yarmouth beach, she stumbled on calling out for us who loved her. Thinking that here was the old boat, and there was her dear friends. When morning broke, they found her. By God's mercy, they took her in and cared for her. Dan Peggotty:
[Scene changes back to Peggotty and Copperfield, as Peggotty continues]
All night long, we've been together. Her arms around my neck, and her head laid here. We knows full well we can put our trust in one another forevermore
