This short scene opens with a description of a woman who was a "caring woman" who was loved by everyone. She became a nurse so that she could care for the elderly and carry supplies to the sick. She also devoted her life to helping her husband become a better man. The scene ends with a soliloquy in which the narrator says that he is sorry that his wife is weak, but that it was him who went overboard. He says that a nurse needs a "heart of gold" and a "body of steel" and that he would like to give his organs to those who need them when he dies.
