_ ACT IV - SCENE SECOND The same persons excepting Dupre and Rousseau.
JOSEPH. What can I do for you? MME. DU BROCARD. You see in what a state of anxiety we are; don't fail to let us know the least turn in our favor which the trial makes. MME. ROUSSEAU. Yes, keep us well informed on the whole business. JOSEPH. You may rest assured of that--But look here, I needn't leave the court house to do that, I intend to see everything, and to hear everything. But do you see that window there? My seat is just under it; you watch that window, and it if he is declared innocent you will see me wave my handkerchief. MME. ROUSSEAU. Do not forget to do so. JOSEPH. No danger of that; I am a poor chap, but I know what a mother's heart is! I am interested in this case, and for you, and for Pamela, I have said a lot of things! But when you are fond of people you'll do anything, and then I have been promised something--you may count upon me. (Exit.) _ |
