SCA. Ah, well, it will be on my shoulders, and not on yours. SIL. It is true that you are master of your own shoulders, and at liberty to dispose of them as you please. SCA. Such dangers never stop me, and I hate those fearful hearts which, by dint of thinking of what may happen, never undertake anything. ZER. (_to_ SCAPIN). But we shall want you. SCA. Oh, yes! but I shall soon be with you again. It shall never be said that a man has with impunity put me into a position of betraying myself, and of revealing secrets which it were better should not be known. SCENE II.--GERONTE, SCAPIN. GER. Well! Scapin, and how have we succeeded about my son's mischance? SCA. Your son is safe, Sir; but you now run the greatest danger imaginable, and I sincerely wish you were safe in your house. GER. How is that? |
