Martha Beeler Monologue from The Faith Healer: A Play in Three Acts

From The Faith Healer: A Play in Three Acts by William Vaughn Moody

female · dramatic · 46 sec

Guess your barn'd 'a' been afire, if I hadn't been keepin' an eye out. (BEELER: I warned 'em about fire!) Haymow ketched. If I hadn't been there to put it out, we'd 'a' been without a roof by now. (BEELER: Guess I better go keep an eye out myself.) Guess you had! Beeler goes out by the kitchen. Martha takes up mechanically her eternal task of setting things to rights--gathering up Annie's toys and arranging the furniture in more precise order. Meanwhile, Rhoda enters from the hall with the mother of the sick child, a frail young woman of nervous type. She clings to Rhoda feverishly.
