Act I - 08 Act II - 42 Act III - 118 Act IV - 167 Act V - 191 PICKERING The floor is yours, Mr Doolittle. DOOLITTLE (to Pickering) I thank you, Governor. (To Higgins, whotakes refuge on the piano bench, a little overwhelmed by the proximity of his visitor; for Doolittle has a professional flavor of dust about him). Well, the truth is, Ive taken a sort of fancy to you, Governor; and if you want the girl, I’m not so set on having her back home again but what I might be open to an arrangement. Regarded in the light of a young woman, she’s a fine handsome girl. As a daughter she’s not worth her keep; and so I tell you straight. All I ask is my rights as a father; and youre the last man alive to expect me to let her go for nothing; for I can see youre one of the straight sort, Governor. Well, whats a five-pound note to you? and whats Eliza to me? (He turns to his chair and sits down judicially). Act I - 08 Act II - 42 Act III - 118 Act IV - 167 Act V - 191 |
