SCENE VIII.—THE COUNTESS, JULIA, ANDRÉE (who brings a glass of water), CRIQUET.

Charles Heron Wall translation

Coun. (to ANDRÉE). Get along with you, you hussy. I drink with a salver. I tell you that you must go and fetch me a salver.

And. Criquet, what's a salver?

Cri. A salver?

And. Yes.

Cri. I don't know.

Coun. (to ANDRÉE). Will you move, or will you not?

And. We don't either of us know what a salver is.

Coun. Know, then, that it is a plate on which you put the glass.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
