THE CADETS.
Never!
CYRANO (to Guiche).
You have proved your valour, Sir! You can afford to fly (pointing to Roxane) and save her!
GUICHE (runs to Roxane and takes her in his arms).
So be it! Hold fast a few moments and we shall win the day!
CYRANO.
We'll hold to the death!
(In a voice of anguish, looking toward Roxane, whom Guiche and Ragueneau are carrying away senseless).
Farewell, Roxane!
