ROXANE:
But who, if he knows not, soon shall learn.

CYRANO:
Ah!. . .

ROXANE:
A poor youth who all this time has loved
Timidly, from afar, and dares not speak. . .

CYRANO:
Ah!. . .

ROXANE:
Leave your hand; why, it is fever-hot!—
But I have seen love trembling on his lips.

CYRANO:
Ah!. . .

ROXANE (bandaging his hand with her handkerchief):
And to think of it! that he by chance—
Yes, cousin, he is of your regiment!

CYRANO:
Ah!. . .

ROXANE (laughing):
—Is cadet in your own company!

CYRANO:
Ah!. . .
