उत्तर

Johnsy: Sue, did you know that Mr. Behrman had painted that last leaf?
Sue: No, I knew it just now, too.
Johnsy: Sue, that means that he got wet that night painting the last leaf!
Sue: And got pneumonia after that!
Johnsy: Yes, because of my stupid fancy that I would die when the last leaf fell.
Sue: It certainly was a stupid idea.
Johnsy: I feel so guilty now! Sue, it is as if... as if... he died for me!
Sue: Yes, so that you may live.
Johnsy: Oh, what a wonderful, Sue compassionate man! To go out in that cold, wintry, snowy night just to paint that leaf!
Sue: And develop pneumonia...
Johnsy: What can I do now? How can I ever thank him?
Sue: I know what you can do!
Johnsy: What? What?
Sue: Paint your masterpiece of the Bay of Naples and dedicate it to him.
Johnsy: Yes, I think that's a good idea. Yes, I'll do that. Thanks, Sue.
