DORINE (cont.) In fact she has summoned him for your sake In order to learn exactly what's at stake, To find out his feelings, and to let him know What really rotten results would flow From any pretensions he might have to marry. His valet says he's praying, and I should tarry-- That he'll descend after he meditates. Be off then, I beg you, and let me wait. DAMIS I demand to be here the whole time they meet. DORINE No. They must be alone. DAMIS I won't even speak. DORINE You're kidding yourself. You're so quick to anger, And that would surely put us all in danger. Go. DAMIS No. I'm going to watch--without getting cross. DORINE How tiresome you are! Here they come. Get lost!
[DAMIS hides himself in a closet.] |
