Scene VIII
(Cl onte, Covielle, Nicole)
NICOLE
Ah! I'm glad to have found you. I'm an ambassadress of joy, and I come . . .
CL ONTE
Get out, traitor, and don't come to amuse me with your treacherous words.
NICOLE
Is this how you receive me . . .
CL ONTE
Get out, I tell you, and go tell your faithless mistress that she will never again in her life deceive the too trusting Cl onte.
NICOLE
What caprice is this? My dear Covielle, explain a little what you are trying to say.
COVIELLE
Your dear Covielle, little hussy? Go, quickly, out of my sight, villainess , and leave me in peace.
NICOLE
What! You come to me too. . .
COVIELLE
Out of my sight, I tell you, and never speak to me again.
NICOLE
My word! What fly has bitten those two? Let's go tell this pretty story to my mistress.
