Dimple Monologue from The Contrast

From The Contrast by Royall Tyler

male · romantic · 49 sec

Have I not already satisfied my charming angel that I can never think of marrying the puling Maria? But, even if it were so, could that be any bar to our happiness? for, as the poet sings, Love, free as air, at sight of human ties, Spreads his light wings, and in a moment flies. Come, then, my charming angel! why delay our bliss? The present moment is ours; the next is in the hand of fate. (Kissing her. (CHARLOTTE: Begone, sir! By your delusions you had almost lulled my honour asleep.) Let me lull the demon to sleep again with kisses. [He struggles with her; she screams.) (Enter MANLY.)
