(Hamilton enters stage left to find Eliza sitting on a bench. She stands to greet him, her stomach swollen. She is pregnant.)346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMp1mmB4RzS
Hamilton: ...How long have you known?346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJlhtSXz3k
Eliza: A month or so.
Hamilton: Eliza, you should have told me. 346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfQoLKI6jd
Eliza: I wrote to the general a month ago-346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWiCTMlwqDK
Hamilton: No.346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKiKfgcNm1
Eliza: I told him to send you home. 346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YF3yprEQL
Hamilton: (quieter) You should have told me...346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQnQKC4RVM
Eliza: Well, I'm not sorry. I knew you'd fight until the war was done-346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReOVm7uUXL
Hamilton: (muttering) The war's not done...346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsMvtKZcQo
Eliza: (continuing) But you deserve a chance to meet your son. You don't know how lucky we are to be alive right now. 346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDLX8G7zbi
Hamilton: (bitter) Will you relish being a poor man's wife? A poor man unable to provide for you? For a child?346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQdzWMyScy
Eliza: I relish being your wife. 346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzLMw5sQ78
(There is a moment of silence as Hamilton looks at Eliza in surprise)346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbROKAbXahH
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? 346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguwVgnimD1
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. 346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIjbFRiBV7
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...346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuuQGn6NMQ
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.)346Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM46iejqElD
