Scene II.—Under the Window.
Reading edition
Knight [kneeling, sings]—"Oh, ma charmante. Dost thou love me, fair one?" etc.
Princess—Yea, Sir Knight; Cupid's arrow hath in truth pierced my heart.
Knight—And wilt thou elope with me? Fear not.
Princess—I fear lest thou should think I bear no love for my father, or that I am too easily won. But yea, I will.
Knight [bends low and kisses her hand]—I will come even on Wednesday next. Will it be long, sweetheart?
Princess [waves hand and tosses a kiss]—Yea, it will be long.
