The Attorney-General enters.
Attorney-General. What is this that is so serious, my dear sir?
Vagret. It's this—I am more worried than I can say. I want to appeal to the conscience of you two gentlemen—to reassure myself—
Attorney-General. Tell us.
Vagret. A whole series of facts—the attitude of the accused—certain details which had escaped me—have given rise, in my mind, to a doubt as to the guilt of this man.
Attorney-General. Was there any mention of these facts, these details, in the brief?
Vagret. Certainly.
Attorney-General. Had the advocate studied this brief?
Vagret. Naturally.
Attorney-General. Well, then? What are you worrying yourself about?
