Mrs Bridgenorth Monologue from Getting Married

From Getting Married by Bernard Shaw

female · dramatic · 1:14 min

Collins wont do. It's something very serious. Do come just a moment, dear. (When she hears him coming she takes a chair at the nearest end of the table). The Bishop comes out of his study. He is still a slim active man, spare of flesh, and younger by temperament than his brothers. He has a delicate skin, fine hands, a salient nose with chin to match, a short beard which accentuates his sharp chin by bristling forward, clever humorous eyes, not without a glint of mischief in them, ready bright speech, and the ways of a successful man who is always interested in himself and generally rather well pleased with himself. When Lesbia hears his voice she turns her chair towards him, and presently rises and stands in the doorway listening to the conversation. THE BISHOP (going to Leo) Good morning, my dear. Hullo! Youve brought Reginald with you. Thats very nice of you. Have you reconciled them, Boxer?
