Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Weak Man and Weak Woman Scene I. - Somerville, a suburban town. Drawing-room in the country residence of Joshua Darrell, Esq. Mr. Darrell reading a newspaper at centre table R. Hugh lolling on a sofa L. C. Julia at piano L. Mrs. Darrell reading a magazine R. C. Secretary, with writing materials upon it, open R. C. Mrs. Dar. Julia, do you expect company to-night? Julia. [Turning around on the piano stool.] Lots of it, Ma! Mr. Langton is to be here. Mr. Whiteford, of course, accompanies him, as usual. Then Mr. Hervey Travers [laughing] I can´t think of that man without [laughing] - promised not to disappoint me. We are to make arrangements about going hay-making on Wednesday. I should not be surprised if Robert would be here also to see that I behave myself, but he might as well spare himself the trouble, for I shan´t: I hate to behave myself, and I don´t propose to do it! Mrs. Dar. Julia, I think you ought to show Mr. Ehrton more attention. He is - Julia. [Crossing to her.] Oh! now, Ma, don´t! Don´t begin on that subject! Dear Ma, forgive me! but really you are a very foolish mother, on some subjects. Yes, you are, little mother! I know I am engaged to be married to Robert Ehrton; there is no danger of my forgetting it whilst he is around. And I love Rob, too! Certainly I do. Dear Rob! But do you suppose, Ma, that because I am engaged to be married, I am going to put my finger in my mouth - so! - and stand in a corner - so! And just because I am engaged I am not to have any more fun - not to see any more of my gentlemen friends! If that´s what you and Hugh there - that horrible rude brother of mine - call behaving myself, I say I won´t behave myself one bit - not one bit! Hugh. Ju, are you actually going to carry out that crazy idea of going to Farber Farm to spoil old Farber´s hay? Julia. [Crosses L.] Indeed I am! It will just be splendid fun, too! Just to think, Pops, I am going to take a party of gentlemen to Farber Farm on a hay-making picnic, or they are going to take me, I don´t know which! I told Daisy all about it to-day, and she is perfectly delighted at the idea. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
