<\/strong>The thing I find suspicious is the matter of
Your birth, your birth!
The thing I can\u2019t overlook is the circumstances of
Your upbringing, your upbringing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A proper sense of morals
As her mother
I cannot permit this!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Can\u2019t be called a mother!
It\u2019s not a mother!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>I beg of you,
Please calm down and think about it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>Then find yourself a mother at once!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Can\u2019t be called a father!
It\u2019s not a father!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>I beg of you,
Please calm down and think about it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>Then find yourself a father at once!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>Please, won\u2019t you think it over?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>No! Certainly not!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>But what about your daughter\u2019s feelings?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>I won\u2019t permit her marriage!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>Never?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>Certainly not! At least to you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Can\u2019t be called a mother!
It\u2019s not a mother!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>I can\u2019t just discard
These passionate feelings!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>First find a mother!
First find a father! Then come back!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Of the proper wealth and station<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I could never make compromises!
Your birth
Does not suit her<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Can\u2019t be called a mother!
It\u2019s not a mother!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>Oh! What if I said
I had a little brother!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>A little brother is not a parent!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Can\u2019t be called a father!
It\u2019s not a father!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>A father? A mother?
Which?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>I don\u2019t care which!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>Could you be a little less stubborn?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>I shan\u2019t!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>Just listen for a moment!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>I must protect my daughter\u2019s happiness
For I am
A mother!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Can\u2019t be called a mother!
It\u2019s not a mother!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>I can\u2019t just discard
These passionate feelings!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>First find a mother!
First find a father!
Then come back!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
