- Peter's Denial -
# MAID BY THE FIRE ;
I think I've seen you somewhere.
I remember.
You were with that man they took away.
I recognized your face.
# PETER ;
You've got the wrong man lady.
I don't know him,
And I wasn't where he was tonight -
Never near the place.
# SOLDIER ;
That's strange, for I am sure I saw you with him.
You were right by his side, and yet you denied.
# PETER ;
I tell you I was never with him
# OLD MAN ;
But I saw you too. It looked just like you.
# PETER ;
I don't know him!
# MARY MAGDALENE ;
Peter, don't you know what you have said?
You've gone and cut him dead.
# PETER ;
I had to do it, don't you see?
Or else they'd go for me.
# MARY MAGDALENE ;
It's what he told us you would do.
I wonder how he knew.
