Tom Jones 2

- You have always used me kindly.
- No, Nephew. I have used you cruelly.

- Nephew?
- Yes.

You are indeed illegitimate,

but your mother was not this lady here,
but my sister Bridget.

- Uncle!
- It is true, Tom.

Ah, this is no time for explanations!

Tom, thou art as hearty a cock
as any in the kingdom.

Go on, after your mistress.

Alas, I fear I’ve sinned against her
for all time. I doubt if she’ll speak to me.

No, Tom, don’t say you’ve lost her yet.
Go to her now.

- (Mrs Waters) Go on, Tom,
- (Mrs Miller) Go to her.

(Western) Go on, lad.

I will!

Ah, go to her, lad! To her!

Hark ye, Allworthy, I’ll bet thee
a thousand pounds to a crown

we’ll have a boy tomorrow nine months.

Happy the man and happy he alone,
he who can call today his own,

he who, secure within,
can say “Tomorrow, do thy worst,

for I have lived today. “
