CAMILLE. Not yet.
LUCILE. What do you mean?
CAMILLE. We are creating Him now. Tomorrow, if I can believe in what my heart tells me, there will be a God: Man. [LUCILE closes her eyes and sleeps. CAMILLE says quietly]. Lucile!—She's asleep.
ROBESPIERRE [coming across the street and catching sight of CAMILLE]. You're still here?
CAMILLE. Sh!
ROBESPIERRE. You forget your duty. [CAMILLE points to LUCILE.—ROBESPIERRE lowers his voice and looks at LUCILE.] Poor child! [He stands still a moment, looking at the pair. The sound of nearby drums awakens LUCILE. She catches sight of ROBESPIERRE and quickly jumps up.]
LUCILE. Oh!
CAMILLE. What's the matter, Lucile? He is our friend Maximilien.
ROBESPIERRE [bows to LUCILE]. Didn't you recognize me?
LUCILE [still trembling]. You frightened me!
