Georgette. What's the matter with you today?

Balthasar. I will tell you what. Georgette—I think you're a trifle too tender with the young gentlemen.

Georgette. See what a child he is! But be reasonable, Balthasar. I must needs be very tender so as to inspire them with confidence.

Rollin. What she says is really deep.

Balthasar. If I thought for a moment that you felt anything when another—

Georgette. What do you say to that? Dumb jealousy will yet bring him to his grave.

Balthasar. I have already heard one sigh, Georgette, and that was at a moment when one of them was already giving sufficient proofs of his confidence.

Georgette. One can't leave off playing a woman in love so suddenly.

Balthasar. Be careful, Georgette—the Seine is deep. (Wildly.) Should you ever deceive me—

Georgette. Never, never.
