Thank you.
_Cromwell_ (giving glasses): Amos? _Amos:_ I'd liefer have a pot of ale, master, if might be. _Cromwell:_ Yes, yes. Bridget, girl. (BRIDGET goes.) _Mrs. Cromwell:_ Oliver, boy, you were quite right--all that you said to those men, I mean. I don't approve, mind you, but you were quite right. _Cromwell:_ Thank you, mother. I knew you would think so. _Elizabeth:_ I wonder what will come of it. You never know, once you begin like this. _Cromwell:_ You never know, wife. _Hampden:_ There are lessons to be learnt. |
