Baron A marriage contract. It's already written. I did it right away, first thing. Second thing is to sign.
Lisette
You won't sign it?
Baron
I will sign.
Lisette
But, when? For my father is taking me off. He is so proud.
Baron
My word is reliable.
Lisette
I believe you, but my father—
Baron
Yes, I will give you my oath.
Lisette (crying again)
Don't swear to me. I believe you already. But my father—
Baron
I will go appease him. I swear to you.
Lisette (crying and holding him by the arm)
No, he's going to take me off. Of that I am sure.
