FRAU LINDEMANN. I am entirely at your service.
[About to go out, left.
FRAU V. BROOK. One thing more. This veranda, leading from the house to the grounds—would it be possible to close it to the public?
FRAU LINDEMANN. Oh, certainly. The guests as often as not sit out under the trees.
FRAU V. BROOK. Very well, then do so, please. [Frau Lindemann locks the door.] We may be assured that no one will enter this place?
FRAU LINDEMANN. If it is desired, none of us belonging to the house will come in here either.
FRAU V. BROOK. We should like that.
FRAU LINDEMANN. Very well. [Exit.
FRAU V. BROOK. Really, you must be more careful, darling. If that woman had understood French— You must be careful!
THE PRINCESS. What would have been so dreadful about it?
