Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Knight of Labor; Or, the Master Workman´s Vow: A New and Original Drama, Depicting Stirring Incidents Relative to the Great Question of Labor and Capital Scene 1st. - Master Workman´s Home at Throckton. Set house R. River backing. Stage a little dark. [Soft music at rise of curtain which continues until dialogue.] Enter Sam Lambert, L. U. E., fish rod on back. Goes off R. U. E. whistling. Enter Basil Brandon and Ruth Watkins, R. U. E., in boat. Basil at oars, Ruth at helm, slightly veiled. Basil. ´Tis sweet to row when love sits at the helm. Sam. [At R. U. E. unseen.] Hi! Look out there! You are on the rocks! [Basil and Ruth startled, stop.] Basil. Hang the luck! I wonder if that imp recognized us? I would rather than a thousand dollars that he had not seen us. We shall be the talk of Throckton before mid-night. Ruth. He certainly did not recognize us in the gloom, Basil, and even if he saw your face; he did not see mine. Basil. Let us hope so. Ruth. But what have we to fear if all the world saw us together? Have we not sworn to be all in all to each other? Basil. Very true, Ruth. We have nothing to fear, and we fear no one; but prudence dictates that I must not anger my father, or he would cut me off without a dollar. Ruth. And even if he should, Basil, our love for each other would more than compensate for the loss. Basil. Ah, I know your love would compensate for a great deal, my own Ruth; but I believe it is best to be cautious. Love in a cottage is delightful, no doubt; but a little money thrown in should not lessen the ardor of love, or detract from the attractions of the cottage.
