Har Monologue from The Countess of Escarbagnas

From The Countess of Escarbagnas by Molière

male · defiant · 58 sec

Confound it all, Madam; let us cast aside all this foolery. (COUN: What do you mean by foolery?) I mean that I do not think it strange that you should yield to the viscount's merit; you are not the first woman in the world who plays such a part, and who has a receiver of taxes of whom the love and purse are betrayed for the first new comer who takes her fancy. But do not think it extraordinary that I do not care to be the dupe of an infidelity so common to coquettes of the period, and that I come before good company to say that I break with you, and that I, the receiver of taxes, will no more be taxed on your account.
