SCENE XV.

Geltrude, Evarist, _and_ Susanna, _all three come out of_ Susanna's

_shop._

_Geltrude._ [_To_ Susanna.] Do me the favour of telling my niece to come

down. I must speak to her.

_Susanna._ I go at once. [_Goes to the villa, knocks, they open, she

enters._]

_Geltrude._ [_Softly to_ Evarist.] I do not wish the Count and the Baron

to go into the house.

_Count._ Signora Geltrude, the Baron and I were just about to visit you.

_Geltrude._ I am obliged for the polite intention. The evening is so

fine, we can talk out of doors.

_Baron._ So you have come back, Signor Evarist?

_Evarist._ [_Curtly._] As you see.
