Now I shall be more easy. Doctor. You must return to your father. Your news has been so sudden that it has shocked me a little. I must collect my wits I must familiarize myself with the thought. But in any event, I congratulate you. Stella. Good night. Too late! The stage represents the same drawing-room. Jozwowicz. Anton. Doctor. Anton, come here.
Truly, I am very glad, especially after what I have heard here about you. Drahomir. You are the good spirit of this house. Stella. Oh, yes! Prince. Let me tell you my opinion of him. George. How often the best student, Jozwowicz, helped Pretwic with his exercises. Doctor. You have a good memory, sir. George. Very good, indeed, for then we did not call each other "sir."
Of the three of us you alone will remain near her. Take care of her guard her. Into your hands I give her, the only treasure I ever possessed. I shall carry out your wishes. George. And now I may be killed. I wish to die like a Christian. If ever I have offended you, forgive me. Yes, of the three of us I alone shall remain near her. Jozwowicz. Anton. Man, have you become an idiot?
But before all we must not allow such people as Jozwowicz to become important in the country. Prince, is it not so? Prince. He will not ask your permission. Countess. That is exactly why the world must be coming to an end that such people can do as they please! They dare to say that Jan will not be able to make a good representative, and that Mr. Jozwowicz will.
So much the better for me. Anton. But if it is a question of the nobility, notwithstanding our programme I make you a present of them. You shall not cut their heads off. Doctor. To be sure. And now go and get to work for me or rather, for us. Anton. For us, Jozwowicz. Do not forget that. Doctor. I will not swear it to you, but I promise you that I will not forget. Anton.
How is she? Doctor. Better. I allowed her to leave bed because she and Drahomir asked me to. George. Drahomir? Doctor. Yes. He wishes to talk with her. They will be here in a quarter of an hour. George. Jozwowicz, I am choking with wrath and pain. Drahomir avoids me. Doctor. But you do not suspect him. George.
Yes, it is I, I crushed those who were in my way, and I shall act the same always. You have me such as I am. Anton. If so, I am no longer in a hurry. Do you know what I am going to tell you? Doctor. You must go for a while. The princess is coming. Jozwowicz and Stella. Stella. Doctor, what is the matter in this house? Doctor. What do you mean, princess? Stella. Mr.
Oh, Mr. Jozwowicz, happiness is a very difficult thing to take hold of. May only the peace not leave us. Doctor. This way, princess. Some one is waiting for me in that room. In a moment I will come to see you. Pray do not receive any one. Anton! Anton, Jozwowicz, then a Servant. Anton. Here I am. Poor child! Doctor. I cannot go for her sake.
If you meet a servant, tell him that I am waiting for Count Drahomir. Jozwowicz then Drahomir. Let that golden-haired page go, but he must see her before he goes. This leave-taking shall be the red flag for the bull. Is Mr. Pretwic in the château? Drahomir. He is with the prince. Doctor. Count, be seated, and let us talk. I am listening, sir. Doctor. You are in love with the princess. Drahomir.
My congratulations. Doctor. It means that I must remain here. At this moment Drahomir stands opposite Pretwic with a pistol. If the news of the fight should come to the princess, she would pay for it with her life. Anton. They are fighting! Doctor. For life or death. In a moment the news will come who is killed. Anton. Jozwowicz, you have done all this. Doctor.
