 订婚宴上眉兰（Melanie）对艾希礼（Ashley）的许诺。这对配角矢志不渝的爱情与主要角色（郝思嘉和白瑞德）现实的爱情观正好相反。艾希礼担心美好的生活会被即将到来的南北战争破坏殆尽。眉兰深情地安慰他说，没有战争能打到你我中间……
M: Ashley.
A: Happy?
M: So happy.
A: You seem to belong here, as if it had all been imagined for you.
M: I'd like to feel that I belong to the things you love.
A: You love Twelve Oaks as I do?
M: Yes, Ashley. I love it as more than a house. It's a whole world that wants only to be grateful and beautiful.
A: It's so unaware that it may not last forever.
M: You're afraid of what may happen if the war comes. But we don't have to be afraid for us. No war can come into our world. Ashley, whatever comes, I'll love you, just as I do now, until I die.
