GUI. You Madam, and myself.
OCT. And why for me?
GUI. [Carefully. ] Why, are you not her mother?
OCT. Hah! [Pause. ] Guido, What festers in your mind? Do you speak out now, If you await some aid from me.
GUI. Madam, I have but this to say: if I were a womanWith a marriageable daughter, and a King rode by, I'd have her at the window.
OCT. So. I thought so.
[With an entire change of manner. ] Guido, what think you, --does she love the King, --I mean Lorenzo's daughter?...
GUI. [Between his teeth. ] Ay, she loves him.
OCT. And loves he her?
GUI. Oh, ay. He loves the moon, The wind in the cypress trees, his mother's portraitAt seventeen, himself, his future children--He loves her well enough. But had she blue eyesAnd yellow hair, and were afraid of snakes, He yet might love her more.
OCT. You think so, Guido?I am content to learn you of that mind. There had occurred to me--some time ago, In fact--a similar fancy. And alreadyMy daughter is well on her way home.
