:42:00
I've never danced with
a more graceful and charming partner.

:42:03
Thank you so much.
:42:05
I'm awfully glad you don't share
Mr. Lincoln's aversion to feminine society.

:42:09
Well, Mr. Lincoln's a great storyteller.
:42:10
Like all such actors,
he revels in boisterous applause.

:42:15
And yet Ninian says it was his wit
that saved those two wretched boys.

:42:19
Yes, unquestionably he has ability
in handling an unthinking mob.

:42:23
Not even his enemies deny
he has a certain political talent.

:42:30
Uh, Mr. Lincoln...
:42:32
are you, by any chance, a member of
the well-known Lincoln family of Massachusetts?

:42:36
Not by any chance I know of, sir.
:42:38
A very fine family, sir.
Very fine.

:42:41

No Lincoln I ever knew
amounted to a hill of beans.

:42:53
Mr. Lincoln, in the part
of the South I come from...

:42:57
it's customary for a gentleman
to ask a visiting lady to dance.

:43:00
Wouldn't you care to ask me?
:43:03
I'd like to dance with you
the worst way, ma'am...

:43:05
but since all the dancin' I've ever done
was behind a plow, I -

:43:09
Mr. Lincoln, I shall be very glad
to dance this dance with you.
