Alb Monologue from Prince Hagen

From Prince Hagen by Upton Sinclair

male · dramatic · 50 sec

That son, Prince Hagen, is now living; and, in the course of events, he will fall heir to the throne I occupy. (GER: I see.) The boy is seven or eight hundred years old, which, in your measure, would make him about eighteen. Now, I speak frankly. The boy is wild and unruly. He needs guidance and occupation. And I have sent for you because I understand that you earth-people think more and see farther than we do. (GER: Yes?) I wish to ask you to help me... to use your strength of mind and body to direct this boy.
