Cantelupe Monologue from Waste: A Tragedy, In Four Acts

From Waste: A Tragedy, In Four Acts by Harley Granville-Barker

male · contemplative · 1:05 min

Mr. O'Connell I remain here almost against my will. I cannot think quite calmly about this double and doubly heinous sin. Don't listen to us while we make light of it. If we think of it as a political bother and ask you to smooth it away... I am ashamed. But I believe I may not be wrong if I put it to you that, looking to the future and for the sake of your own Christian dignity, it may become you to be merciful. And I pray too... I think we may believe... that Mr. Trebell is feeling need of your forgiveness. I have no more to say. (He sits down again.) O'CONNELL. It may be. I have never met Mr. Trebell.
