CYRANO DE BERGERAC

Cyrano

[seeing the Duenna].

Sir, some one asks for you… God! her duenna!

SCENE VI

Cyrano, Le Bret, the Duenna.

The Duenna

[with a low bow].

I was bid ask you where a certain lady
Could see her valiant cousin, but in secret.

Cyrano

[overwhelmed].

See me?

The Duenna

[curtsying].

See me? Ay, Sir! She has somewhat to tell.

Cyrano.

Somewhat?…

The Duenna

[still curtsying].

Somewhat?… Ay, private matters!

Cyrano.

Somewhat?… Ay, private matters! Ah! my God!

The Duenna.

To-morrow, at the early blush of dawn
We go to hear mass at St. Roch.
