Albert
It's true that, right now, I could take them away from her. (to
Arabella) Here. Here's the money—go. May these hundred crowns give
great success to your law suit.
Arabella Now I am sure of succeeding in our business. (taking the purse) But this aid was quite necessary. Give my lawyer this money, Jenny. I believe he will be diligent in serving me.
Jenny
He will lack nothing.
Worthy
You may be sure, Madame, that I wish to serve you with all my soul.
Arabella I will go back and return in more decent clothes—to go with you to solicit the judge in this urgent matter and demand justice. Goodbye. May, one day, heaven reward you for this service to a widow who is to be pitied, who has many sorrows, who is set on by rogues.
(Exit Arabella.)
Jenny (to Worthy)
Here's something to speed your business, sir.
Worthy
I will take care of the case. I know what to do.
Albert (to Jenny)
Be careful of the money.
Jenny
Don't be concerned. I am sure, body for body, it is in good hands.
