I can't understand why you don't get married and done with it.

Jane won't never be able to work again, and that Kate 'll never keep up a dressmaking.

Why don't you marry Emma, and take poor Jane to live with you, where she could be well looked after?
for she won't never part from her sister.

And she does so hope and pray to see Emma married before she goes.

You can't surely be waiting for her death.
Now, there's a good lad of mine, come and marry your wife at once, and don't make delays.
