Seth: So you're the littl' lady from London with your
smart ways, eh?I know your sort.
Drain away a man's blood soon as look at 'im!
Seth: You women are all alike! Fussin' over your
fal-de-lals to bedaze a man's eyes, aye?
And what you really want is 'is blood, 'is pride, and the 'eart out of 'is body.
And then when you've got 'im, bound up in yer fal-de-lals, and yer softness and he
can't move - 'cause of the longin' that cries in 'is blood, what do ya do then, aye?
Ya eats 'im, same as a hen spider eats a cock spider. But I don't let no women eat
me -
I eats them instead. You don't understand what I'm sayin' do ya? - littl' innocent.
Seth: London girls!! One of 'em told me that I was just
absolutely body-thrillin'!
Flora: And so you are, Seth.
Seth: We're a rum lot, us Starkadders. Some un us
goes barney,some un us dies in childhood,
some un us pushes others down wells. So once a year Gramma holds a littl' gatherin' called
the countin'.
