Ay, I say it a master !
Cyrano.
Good - be it so.
The duenna

Here comes Monsieur de Guiche !
[To Cyrano, pushing him towards the house.]
In with you ! 'twere best he see you not, it might perchance put him on the scent . . .
Roxane

Ay, of my own dear secret ! He loves me, and is powerful, and, if he knew, then all were lost ! Marry ! he could well deal a deathblow to my love !
Cyrano

Good ! good !
