"Faith, both are bad enough, but Mr. Rich seems bound to him." "Why doesn't he try Tom Walker? When Tom isn't drunk, he sings like an angel." "I know I know. Well, we'll see." But nothing was done, and at the second rehearsal Quin's Captain Macheath was more droningly dismal than ever.
I believe it would startle and move any one if they could make a certain effort of imagination and read it freshly like a book, not droningly and dully like a portion of the Bible.

"Why, just that pink paradise hat alone would have knocked almost any chap silly," grinned the Younger Man a bit sheepishly. "Humph!" mused the Older Man still droningly. "Humph!
