The Cooper

SCENE III.

Colin, Colin, has he left?

Yes, come, come.

Since we are going to the party tomorrow, take this ribbon, which a Lady gave me the other day: I received it with you in mind, adorn yourself with it for my sake.

Is it truly from a Lady?

Oh as for that, yes, I assure you! it is from that Lady to whom I often go to carry fruit.

Listen Fanchette... It is that...

What, it is that... do you already have some jealousy?

Oh certainly not! that would give you the idea to give me some.

Ah well Colin, while we are alone, tell me how we shall manage to get married?

Eh heavens like the others: what is so difficult about that?

It is that our master will never consent to it.
