462 (Enter SAGARISTIO and the DAUGHTER of SATURIO, from the house, each dressed in Persian costume.)

SAGARISTIO

Have I delayed at all?

TOXILUS

Bravo! bravo! dressed out in splendid style. (To SAGARISTIO.) The tiara¹ does finely set off your dress. Then, too, how beautifully does the slipper become this stranger damsel!

But are you thoroughly up in your parts?
465

SAGARISTIO

Tragedians and Comedians have never been up so well.

TOXILUS

Troth, you are giving me kind assistance. Come, be off that way (pointing.) to a distance out of sight, and hold your tongue. When you see me conversing with the Procurer, that will be the time to accost us; now be off, you,—away with you.

(SAGARISTIO and the DAMSEL go aside, out of sight.)
