Hector Monologue from Heartbreak House

From Heartbreak House by Bernard Shaw

male · melancholic · 47 sec

That was a confounded madness. I can't believe that such an amazing experience is common. It has left its mark on me. I believe that is why I have never been able to repeat it. MRS HUSHABYE (laughing and caressing his arm). We were frightfully in love with one another, Hector. It was such an enchanting dream that I have never been able to grudge it to you or anyone else since. I have invited all sorts of pretty women to the house on the chance of giving you another turn. But it has never come off.
