Mr March Monologue from Windows

From Windows by John Galsworthy

male · philosophical · 49 sec

Mr Bly is like all the greater men I know--he can't listen. (MARY: But you were shaking--) Yes; it's a weakness we have--every three minutes. (MARY: Dad--Silly!) Very! As they go out MR BLY pauses in his labours to catch, as it were, a philosophical reflection. He resumes the wiping of a pane, while quietly, behind him, FAITH comes in with a tray. She is dressed now in lilac-coloured linen, without a cap, and looks prettier than ever. She puts the tray down on the sideboard with a clap that attracts her father's attention, and stands contemplating the debris on the table.
