The Conversion

Llinellau gan Titus (Cyfanswm: 44)

 
(1, 0) 21 My goodness!
(1, 0) 22 Theophilus, if you want a pipe, come out here.
 
(1, 0) 24 But where is Eira?
(1, 0) 25 Haven't you seen her yet?
 
(1, 0) 29 It is the Doctor's doing.
(1, 0) 30 "Your niece," he said, "is depressed, and must have cheerful society."
 
(1, 0) 32 Dear me! they are very merry in there.
 
(1, 0) 34 You might say "Moody and Sankey"─eh─Theophilus?
(1, 0) 35 A double barrel trouble!
 
(1, 0) 37 I had one from a Christian Home in London.
(1, 0) 38 I couldn't do more.
 
(1, 0) 41 "Flossie."
(1, 0) 42 It sounds nice and soft, doesn't it?
(1, 0) 43 Like drawing your hand over velvet.
(1, 0) 44 You ought to make a friend of her, and get her to say nice things about you to Eira.
(1, 0) 45 Flossie will divert her, and you will convert her in the end, I'm sure.
 
(1, 0) 49 Well, you see, her father left it in his will that she must marry a minister, or not have anything after him, and you know what girls are.
(1, 0) 50 If you command them to do a thing, they will do something else.
 
(1, 0) 52 Well, there it is!
(1, 0) 53 But I am thinking you are a bit too solemn for her.
(1, 0) 54 Not for me, mind you.
(1, 0) 55 Oh, no!
(1, 0) 56 I uphold solemnity in a minister, especially in a young one.
(1, 0) 57 But, you see, it is not me you want to please.
 
(1, 0) 60 Ha!
(1, 0) 61 You will get on─you will get on!
(1, 0) 62 Always study your deacons, Mr. Williams.
(1, 0) 63 Have you told her how much money you have got?
 
(1, 0) 66 Just like her─very straight, always.
 
(1, 0) 71 Looks saintly, doesn't she?
 
(1, 0) 73 This is Miss Flossie, Theophilus; companion to my niece.
 
(1, 0) 75 I will leave you to examine into her principles, and say if she is a proper companion for Eira.
 
(1, 0) 77 Be a good girl, Miss Flossie, and, remember, you are in the company of the minister.
 
(1, 0) 82 Try to get round her.
(1, 0) 83 She will help you with Eira.
 
(1, 0) 190 Well, indeed!
(1, 0) 191 I hope Eira is coming to her senses.
(1, 0) 192 You are very patient with her, I must say, Theophilus.
 
(1, 0) 200 No explosives, if you please, Miss Flossie.
 
(1, 0) 206 My dear Eira, I am doing my best for you.
(1, 0) 207 What else can I do?
 
(1, 0) 210 Do be reasonable, Eira.
(1, 0) 211 I offer you Theophilus, with his £500 a year, and you ask for the Church Yard!
 
(1, 0) 215 What in the world are you talking about?
