Prince.—Yes, Mr. Jozwowicz! Noblesse oblige! Do you understand, your Excellency, Mr. Jozwowicz?
Doctor.—I understand, Your Highness.
Prince (giving his arm to Mrs. Czeska).—And now let us take some tea.
(George takes leave and goes out.)
Doctor.—I must also be going. I am tired and I have some letters to write.
Prince.—Upon my honor, one might think that he was already a minister. But come to see us—I cannot sleep without you.
Doctor.—I will be at the service of Your Highness.
Prince (muttering).—As soon as this Robespièrre arrived, I immediately felt better.
Stella.—Doctor, wait a moment. I do not take any tea. I will only put papa in his place, and then I will be back immediately. I must have a talk with you.
SCENE VII.
Jozwowicz alone—then Stella.
