Now you are Philip once again. (Removes her glove, and extends her hand, which he kisses. ) KONIGSMARK. What eyes Are those which glimmer through the corridor? The Countess Platen ! SOPHIA. She ! KONIGSMARK. Ay ; look you there, How she is gliding rapidly away ; And now your husband joins her at the door. They enter, talking eagerly. KONIGSMARK. 57 SOPHIA. Of what? KONIGSMARK. Of you, of me, of mischief. Lies, lies, lies, Past my imagination. Now, Prince George, If you have sense within your ea...rthy mind, Let it bestead you ; for the wily snake That tempted Eve is whispering in your ear Counsel as damning. SOPHIA. Philip, we are snared. KONIGSMARK. I see the trap. If we betray ourselves, We cannot rail at the deceiver s craft. SOPHIA. What is her purpose ? KONIGSMARK. To enrage Prince George With jealous fancies of yourself and me. Suspicion is a monster that grows fat By food which reason starves on. Let us be As wary as her ladyship is false. Dear Princess, if the sun went out in heaven If planets, moon and stars were shrunk to naught In the thick blackness, and the torpid earth Groped blindly onward in her useless flight Poor nature s children would pray death to strike, Perhaps usurp his rights.
