COLONEL (smiling).
In that case I shall come out.
[Exit to the left; ADELAIDE rings.]
Enter SCHMOCK. KORB also appears at the entrance, but quickly withdraws.
SCHMOCK (with a bow).
I wish you a good-morning. Are you the lady who sent me her secretary?
ADELAIDE.
Yes. You said you wished to speak to me personally.
SCHMOCK.
Why should the secretary know about it if I want to tell you something? Here are the notes that Senden wrote and that I found in the paper-basket of the Coriolanus. Look them over, and see if they will be of use to the Colonel. What can I do with them? There's nothing to be done with them.
