Good evening, Reb Lazar.
 

Ah, Tevye - sit down. Have a drink.

(Pours drink)

Tevye - I suppose you know why I wanted to see you.
 

(Drinks)
Yes, I do, Reb Lazar, but there is no use talking about it.

(Upset)
Why not?

Why yes? Why should I get rid of her?

Well, you have a few more without her.

I see! Today you want one. Tomorrow you may want two.

(Startled)
Two? What would I do with two?

Same as you do with one.

I'm talking about your daughter, Tzeitel!

(TEVYE stares at him, upset)
My daughter, Tzeitel?

I see her in my butcher shop every Thursday. She's made a good impression on me. I like her. And I would be good to her, Tevye.

(Slightly embarrassed)
What do you think?

(To AUDIENCE)
What do I think? You can have a fine conversation with him, if you talk about kidneys and livers. On the other hand, not everybody has to be a scholar. Maybe I misjudged him. He is a good man. He likes her. He will try to make her happy.

(Turns to LAZAR)
What do I think? It's a match!

(Delighted)
You agree?

I agree.

Tevye, that's wonderful.

To the both of us.

To our agreement.

To good health and happiness.
