Augusta Monologue from Dr. Jonathan

From Dr. Jonathan by Winston Churchill

female · dramatic · 55 sec

So you are Jonathan. They told me you'd arrived--why didn't you come to us? Do you think it's wise to live in that old house of your father's before it's been thoroughly heated for a few days? (DR: JONATHAN. Oh, I'm going to live with the doors and windows open.) Dear me! I understand you've been quite ill, and you were never very strong as a child. I made it my business to go through the house yesterday, and I must say it looks comfortable. But the carpenters and plumbers have ruined the parlour, with that bench, and the sink in the corner. What are you going to do there? (DR. JONATHAN: I'm having it made into a sort of laboratory.) You don't mean to say you intend to do any work!
