McNaughten
Women don�t' really like sincerity very much.
Spruce
You don't flatter them.
McNaughten By God, I am frank. Woman, mistress, friend, are all alike to me. I am not afraid to say what I think.
Hastings
That's very proper. Everything will be fine. Please stay at my house.
McNaughten
I receive that gracious offer in the proper spirit, but—
Hastings
To let you suffer in a hotel would be an insult.
McNaughten
I beg you to let me stay at liberty a little longer.
Hastings
So be it! I am going to see about this marriage contract.
(Aside)
My would be son-in-law appears a savage. But his wealth redeems all.
(Exit Hastings)
McNaughten (slowly)
I have seen the object I am to marry.
