Percival Monologue from Misalliance

From Misalliance by Bernard Shaw

male · defiant · 55 sec

I hope it is not necessary for me to assure you all that there is not one word of truth--not one grain of substance--in this rascally calumny, which no man with a spark of decent feeling would have uttered even if he had been ignorant enough to believe it. Miss Tarleton's conduct, since I have had the honor of knowing her, has been, I need hardly say, in every respect beyond reproach. (To Gunner) As for you, sir, youll have the goodness to come out with me immediately. I have some business with you which cant be settled in Mrs Tarleton's presence or in her house. (GUNNER: Why should I go out with you?) Because I intend that you shall.
