SCA. There, take these five hundred crowns.
LEA. Ah! I will go at once and buy her whom I adore.
ACT III.
SCENE I.—ZERBINETTE, HYACINTHA, SCAPIN, SILVESTRE.
SIL. Yes; your lovers have decided that you should be together, and we are acting according to their orders.
HYA. (to ZERBINETTE). Such an order has nothing in it but what is pleasant to me. I receive such a companion with joy, and it will not be my fault if the friendship which exists between those we love does not exist also between us two.
