Patou
A golden pheasant!
Golden Pheasant
Is this great Chantecler?
The Blackbird
All over the shop, we’re famous!
Golden Pheasant
[Running hither and thither.] Save me, if you are he!
Chantecler
I am!—Rely on me!
[Another shot.]
Golden Pheasant
[Jumping and casting himself on Chantecler.] Merciful powers!
Chantecler
But what a nervous bird it is—a golden pheasant!
Golden Pheasant
I have no breath left! I ran too hard!-[Faints.]
The Blackbird
Puff!—Out goes his light!
