Mrs. Cortelyon Monologue from The Second Mrs. Tanqueray

From The Second Mrs. Tanqueray by Arthur Wing Pinero

female · contemplative · 47 sec

Mrs. Cortelyon? H'm! No, I admit it. But you must make some little allowance for me, Mr. Tanqueray. Your first wife and I, as girls, were like two cherries on one stalk, and then I was the confidential friend of your married life. That post, perhaps, wasn't altogether a sinecure. And now--well, when a woman gets to my age I suppose she's a stupid, prejudiced, conventional creature. However, I've got over it and----I hope you'll be enormously happy and let me be a friend once more.
