Good evening.
KING.
Right, oh! Prince, that you are come. Now, at least, you will have something good about my family to tell them in Rheinsberg. [Aside.] Spy! [Aloud.] But your pipe is cold.
PRINCE (with suppressed anger).
I am hoping that I may find fire enough here.
[The company sit down, the KING and GRUMBKOW at one end of the table, HOTHAM and the PRINCE at the other.]
KING.
Lay on, gentlemen—there stand the care-chasers.
SECKENDORF.
To His Majesty's health!
