Galatea — in thine innocence (taking glass from her) Thon sayest things that others would reprove.
Gal. Indeed, Pygmalion ; then it is wrong To think that one is exquisitely fair ?
Ptg. Well, Galatea, it's a sentiment That every other woman shares with thee ; They thi7ik it — but they keep it to themselves.
Gal. And is thy wife as beautiful as I ?
Pyg. No, Galatea, for in forming thee I took her features — lovely fn themselves— And in the marble made them lovelier still.
Gal. (disappointed) Uh ...1 then I'm not original ?
Pyg. Well— no— That is — thou hast indeed a prototype.
But though in stone thou did'st resemble her, In life, the difference is manifest.
Gal. I'm very glad that I am lovelier than she.
And am I better ? (sits, L.) Pyg. That I do not know.
Gal. Then she has faults.
Pyg. Very few indeed ; PYGMALION AND GALATEA. 16 Mere trivial blemishes, that serve to show Tliat she and I are of one common kin.
I love her all the better for such faults, GaIi. {after a pause) Tell me some faults and I'll commit them now.
