Casalonga Monologue from His Widow's Husband

From His Widow's Husband by Jacinto Benevente

male · comedic · 1:13 min

I choose you for my second. And you too, my friend—what is your name? I cannot accept your explanation. My friends will confer with yours and apprise us as to the details. Have everything ready for this afternoon. Yes, sir, and it is high time for us all to realize that it is in earnest. It was all your fault. Nobody buys without spending the wares. It was your business to have pointed out to me the indiscretion I was about to commit. I am perfectly willing to withdraw if you wish to fight him, to yield my place as the aggrieved party to you. I should be delighted to act as one of your seconds, with our good friend here—what is your name? My good friend Zurita. You have forgotten with whom you are speaking. Nor me either.
