SEDLINZKY.
Yes; for the Duke!--and at this ball!
METTERNICH.
[_Lightly_.]
Here! you alarm me!
GENTZ.
Be an angel, f.a.n.n.y, And tell me why you wished to come.
f.a.n.n.y.
Caprice.
METTERNICH.
I fear the Duke no more. I've killed his pride.
And he's in mourning for it. He'll not come.
SEDLINZKY.
But there's a plot!
METTERNICH.
Bah!
SEDLINZKY.
Women--
METTERNICH.
Featherbrains.
SEDLINZKY.
No! n.o.ble ladies.
METTERNICH.
Really?
SEDLINZKY.
Poles and Greeks: Princess Grazalcowitch.
METTERNICH.
Grazalcowitch!
That's terrible!
[_To a_ LACKEY.]
Pray let me have a sandwich.
SEDLINZKY.
You laugh?--Hush!--Here they come. They've fled the light And seek a nook to whisper in.
[_Enter several_ DOMINOS.]
ONE OF THE DOMINOS.
My dear, How sweet it is to run a risk for his sake.
SECOND DOMINO.
Let us conspire!
THIRD DOMINO.
His hair's such lovely auburn.
FOURTH DOMINO.
It's like a pretty little halo, dear, Through which a regal crown is dimly seen.
FIFTH DOMINO.
He has a doubly-fascinating charm:-- A fair Napoleon! Hamlet dressed in white!
FIRST DOMINO.
Let us conspire!
SECOND DOMINO.
First, I suggest we order A golden bee from Stieger in Vienna.
ANOTHER DOMINO.
Vienna! Why? That _would_ be idiotic!
We'll have it made by Odiot in Paris.
FOURTH DOMINO.
