SCENE XI.

_Young_ Laroon, Beatrice.

_Bea._ What are you doing in the Dark, my Dear?

_Y. Lar._ Heyday, who the Devil is this? I seem to be in a way of an

Assignation in earnest.

_Bea._ _Isabel_, where are you?

_Y. Lar._ Here, Child, give me your Hand. Dear Mademoiselle _Beatrice_,

is it you?

_Bea._ Oh Heavens! am I in a Man's Arms?

_Y. Lar._ Hush! hush!----Don't you know my Voice----I am _Laroon_.

_Bea._ Mr. _Laroon_! What Business can you have here?

_Y. Lar._ Ask me no Questions, get but into a Corner of the Room and be

silent, and you will perhaps see a very diverting Scene. Nay, do not be

afraid, for I assure you, it will be a very innocent one; make haste,

dear Madam, you will do a very laudable Action, by being an additional

Evidence to the Discovery of a notorious Villain.

_Bea._ I cannot guess your Meaning, but would willingly assist on such

an Occasion.

_Yo. Lar._ Now for my desiring Lover. Ha! I think I hear him.
