Miss Alliance by Bernard Shaw. Oh, lots. That's part of the routine of life here. The very dull is part of it. The young man who comes a courting is as for millions incident in my life as coffee for breakfast. Off course is too much of a gentleman to misbehave himself. And I'm too much of a lady to let him. And he's shy and sheepish, and I'm correct and self possessed, and at last, when I can bear it, no longer either frighten him off or give him a chance of proposing just to see how he'll do it and refuse him because he does it in the same silly way as all the rest. You don't call that an event in one's life, do you? With you it was different. You know, I'm only a linen drapers daughter. When all said I was afraid of you, you Ah, great man. A lord and older than my father. And then what? The situation It wass Just think of it. I was engaged to your son and you knew nothing about it. He was afraid to tell you he brought you down here because he thought if he could throw us together. I could get around you because I was such a ripping girl. He arranged it all. He and I, we got papa and Mama and Johnny out of the way splendidly. And then Bentley took himself off and left us. You and me to take a walk through the heather and admire the scenery of hind head. You never dreamt it was all a plan that what made me so nice was the way I was playing up to my destiny as the sweet girl that was to make your boy happy and then would then you propose you Ah, father for your son's girl, Miss Alliance by Bernard Shaw.
