Ooooh! Coward yourself! You ain't no lady. No, Miss. That's what my poor old Mother would say to you, if my poor old Mother was to hear you. Whose boat is this, anyway?

Well, I ain't sorry no more, you crazy, psalm-singing, skinny old maid!

Charlie Allnut Oh, Miss. Oh, have pity, Miss. You don't know what you're doing Miss. I'll perish without a hair of the dog. Oh Miss, it ain't your property.
Charlie Allnut Are you cracked? The currents down there are fierce. I don't want a drowned woman on my hands. What will you be thinking of next?
Charlie Allnut Pinch me, Rosie. Here we are, going down the river like Anthony and Cleopatra on that barge! I'll never forget the way you looked going over the falls - head up, chin out, hair blowing in the wind - the living picture of a hero-eyne!
