Book Excerpt: 
. . .WHAT THE GOODMAN DOES IS ALWAYS RIGHT SCENE I

TIME: early one morning.
PLACE: a very old farmhouse.

THE GOODMAN. HIS WIFE.

[The GOODMAN and his WIFE are seated in their spare room because it is Fair-day.]

WIFE. Yes, I think it would be as well to sell our horse. Or, as you say, we might exchange him for something more useful.

GOODMAN. What shall we exchange him for?

WIFE. You know best, Goodman. Whatever you do will be right.

GOODMAN (starting out). It is Fair-day. I will ride into town and see what can be done.

WIFE. Wait till I fasten your neckerchief! You shall have a pretty double bow this time, for you are going to the Fair.

(She ties the neckerchief. The Goodman starts out.)

Wait till I have smoothed your hat!

GOODMAN (going). Be at the window, Wife.

WIFE (nodding). Yes, surely, and I will wave at you as you. . . Read More
