Recitative
TRUELOVE
(Truelove is about Ana)
Anne, my dear.
ANNE
Yes, father.
TRUELOVE
Your advice is needed in the kitchen.
(She enters the house)
Tom, I have news for you.
I have spoken on your behalf
to a good friend in the City,
and he offers you a position
in his counting house.
TOM
You are too generous, sir.
You must not think me ungrateful
if I do not immediately accept
what you propose,
but I have other prospects in view.
TRUELOVE
Your reluctance to seek employment
makes me uneasy.
TOM
Be assured,
your daughter shall not marry a poor man.
TRUELOVE
So he be honest,
she may take a poor husband, if she choose.
But I am resolved
she shall never marry a lazy one.
(Truelove enters the house)
TOM
The old fool!
