Miss Woodward Monologue from The Tyranny of Tears: A Comedy in Four Acts

From The Tyranny of Tears: A Comedy in Four Acts by C. Haddon (Charles Haddon) Chambers

female · contemplative · 55 sec

I'm very, very sorry; please don't be angry, but I didn't think it found the right expression. It was very impudent of me, I know. (MRS. PARBURY: Very.) It seemed to me that you smoothed his hair when he'd rather it was rough, and roughed it when he'd rather it was smooth. (Demurely.) I think that expresses what I mean. I have a beastly sly way of noticing everything, and I began to feel sorry for Mr. Parbury. And being quite as egotistical as most girls, I began to think I should have made him a better wife than you. (MRS. PARBURY: Oh.) Perhaps in the remotest corner of my heart I think so still.
