Scene IV.
The Prince, Orsina, Marinelli.
PRINCE (_aside, as he advances_).
I must come to his assistance.
ORSINA (_espies him, but remains irresolute whether to approach him or not_).
Ha! There he is.
PRINCE (_walks straight across the room towards the other apartments_).
Ha! The fair Countess, as I live. How sorry I am, Madam, that I can to-day so ill avail myself of the honour of your visit. I am engaged. I am not alone. Another time, dear Countess, another time. At present stay no longer--no longer, I beg. And you, Marinelli--I want you. (_Exit_.)
