Description
Excerpt: THE action takes place in Dumortier?s park in Navarre. A pavilion to the right. At the back a wooden bridge thrown up over a small stream. Rustic chairs. DUMORTIER: (to Isidore) And Miss Cesarine? ISIDORE: I just met her taking her usual stroll through the park. DUMORTIER: The fact is she?s as early a riser as her uncle the Baron is a late one. Since my noble friend accepted hospitality in the pavilion in my park he?s been rising so late that he?s been obliged to lunch alone. We are in that case deprived of the honor? ISIDORE: Why the honor? DUMORTIER: You don?t know that the d'Entremouillettes are the principal nobility of Sologne?
