Baron

What is the matter with you, dear little Consuelo?

Consuelo

Nothing.

Zinida

She simply needs a rest, Baron. She hasn't sat down yet ... and so much excitement.... Sit down here, dear child. Cover yourself and rest a little. Men are so cruel!

Consuelo

I still have to work. [Closing her eyes.] And the roses, are they ready?

Zinida

Ready, dear, ready. You will have such an extraordinary carpet. You will gallop as if on air. Rest.
