Owen Monologue from Deirdre of the Sorrows

From Deirdre of the Sorrows by John Millington Synge

42 sec

I’ll go so, for if I had you seven years I’d be jealous of the midges and the dust is in the air. I’ll give you a riddle, Deirdre: Why isn’t my father as ugly and old as Conchubor? You’ve no answer? . . . . It’s because Naisi killed him. Think of that and you awake at night, hearing Naisi snoring, or the night you hear strange stories of the things I’m doing in Alban or in Ulster either.
