MEPHISTOPHELES
'Tis yet too soon.
FAUST
Some present for my love procure!
(Exit.)
MEPHISTOPHELES
Presents so soon! 'tis well! success is sure!
Full many a goodly place I know,
And treasures buried long ago;
I must a bit o'erlook them now.
(Exit.)
EVENING. A SMALL AND NEAT ROOM
MARGARET (braiding and binding up her hair)
I would give something now to know,
Who yonder gentleman could be!
He had a gallant air, I trow,
And doubtless was of high degree:
That written on his brow was seen—
Nor else would lie so bold have been.
(Exit.)
