Bell Monologue from The Old Bachelor

From The Old Bachelor by William Congreve

57 sec

If we part so I’m mistaken. Hold, hold, madam! I confess I have run into an error. I beg your pardon a thousand times. What an eternal blockhead am I! Can you forgive me the disorder I have put you into? But it is a mistake which anybody might have made. LÆT. What can this mean? ’Tis impossible he should be mistaken after all this. A handsome fellow if he had not surprised me. Methinks, now I look on him again, I would not have him mistaken. We are all liable to mistakes, sir. If you own it to be so, there needs no farther apology.
