Captain What a ray of hope breaks through for my love. While I'm still uncertain what to do about my brother, I'd best manage her. Go back to the customs house, to the stage coach.

If I'm not mistaken, here comes Urania and Jenny now.
Captain
Go, quickly, where I send you.
(Exit Spruce)
(Enter Urania and Jenny, her maid)
Urania What a joy. We will see Captain McNaughten again today. I cannot stay put. Such excitement—agitates me. How do you think I look, Jenny?
Jenny
Charming. Your beauty surprises, ravishes, carries one away, enchants
—. It seems Cupid himself has adjusted your face today.
Urania This girl always has the best taste. (seeing the Captain) Ah, sir, you here! What a lucky chance—this is better than I had hoped for—what hurries your return? What god brings you back to me?
Captain
Cupid.
Urania
Cupid? The poor child!
