Prokesch.
Oh, hush !
The Duke.
When from the glowing page of history I lift dazed eyes, a forehead splashed with glory.
Closing my Plutarch, leap with thee, O Caesar, Upon a conquered land, with Alexander, With Hannibal, with thee, my Father — A Lackey.
[Entering.] What Will your Highness please to wear to-night ?
The Duke.
[To Prokesch.] There !
[To the Lackey.] I'm not going out.
[The Lackey disappears.] Prokesch.
[Who has been turning over some books.] They let you read?

... The Duke.
Oh, anything. The days are past when Fanny, That I might learn, learnt history by heart.
And, later, books were handed me in secret.
Prokesch.
The good Archduchess — ?
The Duke.
Every day a book.
Locked safe all night I read it. I was drunk !
When it was finished, to conceal my crime, I tossed it on the tester's canopy.
And there the heap grew, hidden in the darkness ; I slept beneath a dome of history.
All day the heap lay quiet, but at night.
When I was sleeping, it began to stir.
