I know everything, and I promise it will be all right.<br><br>LAMBLIN. No, no, I tell you. Marthe told me she wanted to leave me.<br><br>MADAME BAIL. Now, don't carry on that way. I don't want to see you cry.<br><br>LAMBLIN. But how can I be calm when my whole future is ruined?<br><br>MADAME BAIL. Nothing of the sort. Don't you think I know my own daughter?
