Yes, my dear Chevalier, yes, I repeat it to you, I
love you, I love you too late. I regret without cease the years I have
spent without knowing you.
FRONTIN: I'm only twenty five but I would have come into the world
twenty years sooner to know you. Yes, time is dear to us, as it ought
to be. Let us see quickly. Let's decide. Have you resolved?
ARAMINTE: I've looked, looked again, decided, determined, concluded.
Ought I to be in fear of this savage sister who hates marriage for
herself and for me? You will be my husband from tomorrow, from this
evening.
FRONTIN: But to the essential. You must be able, before declaring our
business to your sister, to get rid of those promissory notes to
Valere. Reach an agreement with him. Is your money ready?
ARAMINTE: Yes, I've withdrawn everything. It is in my interest this
forfeiture be taken care of, alas, before my sister learns of my
marriage. I am prudent and wise.
FRONTIN: Haste! I am going to see my illustrious relatives to tell
them the role I am taking.
