From The School for Husbands by Molière

There, ducky, my heart's delight, I will return immediately. (VAL: Sir, what brings you here again?) Your follies. (VAL: How?) You know well enough what I wish to speak to you about. To tell you plainly, I thought you had more sense. You have been making fun of me with your fine speeches, and secretly nourish silly expectations. Look you, I wished to treat you gently; but you will end by making me very angry. Are you not ashamed, considering who you are, to form, such designs as you do? to intend to carry off a respectable girl, and interrupt a marriage on which her whole happiness depends?
