Cyrano.
Hideous! Hideous! yes! Disfigured.
Roxane.
Hideous! Hideous! yes! Disfigured. Ay!
Cyrano.
Grotesque?
Roxane.
Grotesque? He could not be grotesque to me!
Cyrano.
You'd love the same?…
Roxane.
You’d love the same?… The same—nay, even more!
Cyrano
[losing command over himself—aside].
My God! it's true, perchance, love waits me there!
[To Roxane.]
I… Roxane… listen…
Le Bret
[entering hurriedly—to Cyrano].
I… Roxane… listen… Cyrano!
Cyrano
[turning round].
I… Roxane… listen… Cyrano! What?
Le Bret.
I… Roxane… listen… Cyrano! What? Hush!
[He whispers something to him.]
