(Exit Townly)
Nelson: (entering)
Well, well, Lucas. We are going to sign the contract. Here's the money
I promised you—
Lucas: Madam is going to give you your walking papers—she's looking for you to do just that.
Nelson:
She doesn't want me, you say?
Lucas:
Something has happened, I don't know exactly what. Wait for me here,
I'm going to see for myself.
(Exit Lucas)
Nelson:
I love waiting for this little Angelica—but I'm joking about that. If
I don't marry her, I can marry at least four others.
(Enter Angelica followed by Edward who is determined to fathom her tricks)
Nelson:
Well, well, poor girl, it's bad for you. You won't get married.
Angelica:
What an irritating thing.
