[Exeunt.

Enter Margaret, with a lamp.

Margaret.

It is so sultry here, so hot! [She opens the window.]

And yet so warm without ’tis not.

I feel—I know not how—oppressed;

Would to God that my mother came!

A shivering cold runs o’er my frame—

I’m but a silly timid girl at best!

[While taking off her clothes, she sings.]
