What does this mean? There are only my enemies here, this morning! The Queen is speaking in a low tone to Simon Renard. The devil! She is laughing! It is a bad sign.
THE QUEEN (graciously to Fabiani).
God be with you, my lord!
FABIANI (seizing her hand which he kisses).
Madame— [Aside.] She smiled at me! The danger is not for me!
THE QUEEN (still graciously).
I want to speak to you.
[She advances to the front of the stage with him.
FABIANI.
