BORKMAN. No one of your own family. You are the last.
ELLA RENTHEIM. [Nodding slowly. ] Yes, that is just it. When I die, the nameof Rentheim dies with me. And that is such a torturing thoughtto me. To be wiped out of existence--even to your very name---- BORKMAN. [Firing up. ] Ah, I see what you are driving at!
ELLA RENTHEIM. [Passionately. ] Do not let this be my... forte. Let Erhart bearmy name after me!

ELLA RENTHEIM. No, no, not that! I myself would have borne it proudly andgladly along with you! But a mother who is at the point ofdeath---- There is more binding force in a name than you thinkor believe, Borkman.
