Mrs Monologue from The Wolves and the Lamb

From The Wolves and the Lamb by William Makepeace Thackeray

female · anguished · 44 sec

P.--Yes, my love! you are a good love, and generous, heaven knows, to your poor old mother who has seen better days. If we had not wanted, would I have ever allowed you to be a governess--a poor degraded governess? If that brute O'Reilly who lived on our second floor had not behaved so shamefully wicked to you, and married Miss Flack, the singer, might you not have been Editress of the Champion of Liberty at this very moment, and had your Opera box every night? (She drinks champagne while talking, and excites herself.)
