WHY JESUS WEPT.
SCENE IX
Enter THE MARQUIS OF GLENSTRAE, Outside Tyson’s Cottage.
GLENSTRAE.
Here, then, lives the pretty piece of goods Angela wrote
me of. (Molly appears at doorway.) Ah ! my pretty lass, can you
give a poor old man a glass of milk ?
MOLLY.
Yes, sir, I will fetch you one. Pray you, set you down
awhile. (He sits down. She goes.)
GLENSTRAE.
Ugh ! Ugh ! This rheumatism at me again. I wish I had
left the business to Arthur. — But there, there, one never
knows. (Molly comes in with the milk.) There, there ! what have
you been crying for ?
MOLLY.
O sir !
GLENSTRAE.
I am the Marquis of Glenstrae, my pretty wench. If my
name and fortune can serve you — there, there ! I never
could bear to see a pretty lass cry.
