CYRANO DE BERGERAC
159
First Page
[in a low voice].
We've played the serenade you bade
To Montfleury !
Cyrano
[quickly, in a low voice].
Go ! lurk in ambush there,
One at this street corner, and one at that ;
And if a passer-by should here intrude,
Play you a tune !
Second Page.
What tune, Sir Gassendist ?
Cyrano.
Gay, if a woman comes, - for a man, sad !
[The Pages disappear, one at each street corner. To Christian.]
Call her !
Christian.
Roxane !
Cyrano
[picking up stones and throwing them at the window],
Some pebbles ! wait a while !
Roxane
[half-opening the casement].
Who calls me ?
Christian.
I!
Roxane.
Who's that ?
