Shall I help you throw the corpse into the river?

GILBERT.

You are a demon!

[Gilbert takes the body up by the head, Fabiani by the feet; they carry it to the parapet.

FABIANI.

Yes. Faith, my friend, I can no longer exactly tell which of us killed this man!

[They go down behind the parapet. Fabiani re-appears.

It is done. Good-night, comrade! Go your way!

[He starts toward the house, but turns back, seeing that Gilbert follows him.

Well, what do you want? Money for your trouble? In truth, I don't owe you anything, but here, take this.
