The Man is so goodhearted! In all probability he and his party themselves have not yet sat down to supper.

I told you a lackey would be sent to summon us.

What a magnificent livery he wore!

They say the supper is equally magnificent.

Oh, nothing is ever badly done in the Man's house.

What music! What an honour to be one of the guests at a ball given by the Man!

How persons must envy us who have not been accorded that honour!

How rich it all is!

How sumptuous!

[Repeating these ejaculations over and over again, the Guests begin to depart. Only one couple of dancers continue dancing; the rest follow the Guests in silence. For a little while the last couple continue their diversion; then they hasten to overtake their companions. Nevertheless the musicians play with unabated vigour.
