(Hamilton enters stage left to find Eliza sitting on a bench. She stands to greet him, her stomach swollen. She is pregnant.)335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDBR7kRcjn
Hamilton: ...How long have you known?335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQG5Yt2Xa6
Eliza: A month or so.
Hamilton: Eliza, you should have told me. 335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO813AiFABt
Eliza: I wrote to the general a month ago-335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZX0KPhEXuW
Hamilton: No.335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8M7bJ9RUU6
Eliza: I told him to send you home. 335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI55MMsuLbM
Hamilton: (quieter) You should have told me...335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6eFZVdnOC
Eliza: Well, I'm not sorry. I knew you'd fight until the war was done-335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgc0H7RWCR
Hamilton: (muttering) The war's not done...335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyhvxtOVSx
Eliza: (continuing) But you deserve a chance to meet your son. You don't know how lucky we are to be alive right now. 335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaJwqk5S0G
Hamilton: (bitter) Will you relish being a poor man's wife? A poor man unable to provide for you? For a child?335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpdY9btPxO
Eliza: I relish being your wife. 335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaE2wgf38kJ
(There is a moment of silence as Hamilton looks at Eliza in surprise)335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡci7BoXtyar
Eliza: Look around. Look at where you are. Look at where you started. You used to be an immigrant from a place no one knew about, trying to gain an education in a place you weren't respected. Now, you write for General Washington, a man who is going to bring us independence. How can anyone not respect you now? 335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAugvb1K40
Not to mention, the fact that you're alive is a miracle. You've lived twice as long as expected. Just please, stay alive, that would be enough.
And if this child has a fraction of your smile or a fragment of your mind, (laughs) look out world! That would be enough. 335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKYg43RPTp
I don't pretend to know the challenges your facing, the worlds you create and erase in your mind. But I am not afraid. I know who I married. I don't need you to be famous or the most successful man in America, just as long as you come home at the end of the day, everyday...that would be enough.
We don't need a legacy. We don't need money. And if I can grant you peace of mind...if you can let me inside your heart...335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYt4VaXg4L
There will be a narrative written about you one day. Let me be a part of it. Let this moment be the first chapter, the one where you decide to stay...
Oh, and I could be enough! And we could be enough. That would be enough...
(Lost in the moment, Eliza looks at Hamilton again. He is crying. Another beat, and they embrace.)335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprBRLSCvUH
