Mrs Is Monologue from Prince Hagen

From Prince Hagen by Upton Sinclair

female · dark · 56 sec

I imagine a good many came because they didn't dare stay away. They certainly can't be enjoying themselves after such a day down town. (GER: It was too bad the panic should come just on the eve of the ball.) My dear Gerald! That's his sense of humor! He wanted to bring them here and set them to dancing and grinning, while in their hearts they are frightened to death. (GER: How did he do it, anyway?) Why, he seems to have money without limit... and he's been buying and buying... everything in sight! You know how prices have been soaring the past two months. And of course the public went wild, and took to speculating. Then Prince Hagen sold; and the bottom has simply dropped out of everything.
