Scene 3.VII.

Cyrano, Christian, a capuchin friar.

CYRANO (to the friar):
What do you, playing at Diogenes?

THE FRIAR:
I seek the house of Madame. . .

CHRISTIAN:
Oh! plague take him!

THE FRIAR:
Madeleine Robin. . .

CHRISTIAN:
What would he?. . .

CYRANO (pointing to a street at the back):
This way!
Straight on. . .

THE FRIAR
I thank you, and, in your intention
Will tell my rosary to its last bead.

(He goes out.)

CYRANO:
Good luck! My blessings rest upon your cowl!

(He goes back to Christian.)
