Est Monologue from Prince Hagen

From Prince Hagen by Upton Sinclair

female · dramatic · 1:13 min

(With sudden seriousness.) Oh, Gerald! (Comes closer.) It was a frightful thing! I've hardly dared to think about it! (GER: Tell me.) Gerald, that man was talking straight at me... he meant every bit of it for me! (GER: Tell me the story.) Why, you know, Lord Alderdyce had heard about this wild fellow, Steve O'Hagen, who's made such a sensation this campaign. And he's interested in our election and wanted to hear O'Hagen speak. He said he had a friend who'd arrange for us to be introduced to him; and so we went down there. And there was a most frightful crowd... it was an outdoor meeting, you know. We pushed our way into a saloon, where the mob was shouting around this O'Hagen. And then he caught sight of us... and Gerald, from the moment he saw me he never took his eyes off me! Never once!
