CYRANO DE BERGERAC

The Burgher

[coming down again with his son.]

Ah! You shall presently see some renowned actors…

The Pickpocket

[making the gestures of one who pulls something stealthily, with little jerks].

Thus for handkerchiefs—

The Burgher.

Montfleury…

Some One

[shouting from the upper gallery]

Light up, below there!

The Burgher.

Montfleury… …Bellerose, l'Epy, La Beaupré, Jodelet!

A Page

[in the pit].

Here comes the buffet-girl!

The Buffet-Girl

[taking her place behind the buffet].

Oranges, milk, raspberry-water, cedar bitters!…

[A hubbub outside the door is heard.]

A Falsetto Voice.

Make place, brutes!
