Well, there I was in the clover, you will say, placed in the position of trust and honor with a little cottage of my own to live in with my rounds on the estate to occupy me in the morning and my accounts in the afternoon and my pipe in my Robinson Crusoe in the evening. What more could I possibly want to make me happy? Remember what Adam wanted when he was alone in the Garden of Eden? And if you don't blame it on Adam, don't blame it on me. The woman I fixed my eye on was the women who kept my house for me at my cottage. Her name was Selena Goby. I agree with the late William Carpet about picking a wife, See that she choose her food well and says her foot down firmly on the ground when she walks. And you're all right, Selena. Gobi was are right in both these respects, which was one reason for marrying her. I had another reason. Likewise entirely of my own. Discovering Selena being a single woman made me pay so much a week for her board and services. Selena, being my wife, couldn't charge for her board and would have to give me her services for nothing. That was the point of view. I looked at it from economy with a dash of love.
