ORGON, CLEANTE, DORINE<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

ORGON<\/span>
\nAh! Good morning, brother.<\/span><\/p>\n

CLEANTE<\/span>
\nI was just going, but am glad to greet you.<\/span>
\nThings are not far advanced yet, in the country?<\/span><\/p>\n

ORGON<\/span>
\nDorine . . .<\/span><\/p>\n

(To Cleante)<\/span>
\nJust wait a bit, please, brother-in-law.<\/span>
\nLet me allay my first anxiety<\/span>
\nBy asking news about the family.<\/span><\/p>\n

(To Dorine)<\/span>
\nHas everything gone well these last two days?<\/span>
\nWhat’s happening? And how is everybody?<\/span><\/p>\n

DORINE<\/span>
\nMadam had fever, and a splitting headache<\/span>
\nDay before yesterday, all day and evening.<\/span><\/p>\n

ORGON<\/span>
\nAnd how about Tartuffe?<\/span><\/p>\n

DORINE<\/span>
\nTartuffe? He’s well;<\/span>
\nHe’s mighty well; stout, fat, fair, rosy-lipped.<\/span><\/p>\n

ORGON<\/span>
\nPoor man!<\/span><\/p>\n

DORINE<\/span>
\nAt evening she had nausea<\/span>
\nAnd could’t touch a single thing for supper,<\/span>
\nHer headache still was so severe.<\/span><\/p>\n

ORGON<\/span>
\nAnd how<\/span>
\nAbout Tartuffe?<\/span><\/p>\n

DORINE<\/span>
\nHe supped alone, before her,<\/span>
\nAnd unctuously ate up two partridges,<\/span>
\nAs well as half a leg o’ mutton, deviled.<\/span><\/p>\n

ORGON<\/span>
\nPoor man!<\/span><\/p>\n

DORINE<\/span>
\nAll night she couldn’t get a wink<\/span>
\nOf sleep, the fever racked her so; and we<\/span>
\nHad to sit up with her till daylight.<\/span><\/p>\n

ORGON<\/span>
\nHow<\/span>
\nAbout Tartuffe?<\/span><\/p>\n

DORINE<\/span>
\nGently inclined to slumber,<\/span>
\nHe left the table, went into his room,<\/span>
\nGot himself straight into a good warm bed,<\/span>
\nAnd slept quite undisturbed until next morning.<\/span><\/p>\n

ORGON<\/span>
\nPoor man!<\/span><\/p>\n

DORINE<\/span>
\nAt last she let us all persuade her,<\/span>
\nAnd got up courage to be bled; and then<\/span>
\nShe was relieved at once.<\/span><\/p>\n

ORGON<\/span>
\nAnd how about<\/span>
\nTartuffe?<\/span><\/p>\n

DORINE<\/span>
\nHe plucked up courage properly,<\/span>
\nBravely entrenched his soul against all evils,<\/span>
\nAnd to replace the blood that she had lost,<\/span>
\nHe drank at breakfast four huge draughts of wine.<\/span><\/p>\n

ORGON<\/span>
\nPoor man!<\/span><\/p>\n

DORINE<\/span>
\nSo now they both are doing well;<\/span>
\nAnd I’ll go straightway and inform my mistress<\/span>
\nHow pleased you are at her recovery.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"menu_order":5,"template":"","meta":{"pb_show_title":"on","pb_short_title":"","pb_subtitle":"","pb_authors":[],"pb_section_license":""},"chapter-type":[],"contributor":[],"license":[],"class_list":["post-34","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"part":3,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.library.torontomu.ca\/tartuffe\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters\/34","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.library.torontomu.ca\/tartuffe\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.library.torontomu.ca\/tartuffe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.library.torontomu.ca\/tartuffe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.library.torontomu.ca\/tartuffe\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters\/34\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":35,"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.library.torontomu.ca\/tartuffe\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters\/34\/revisions\/35"}],"part":[{"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.library.torontomu.ca\/tartuffe\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/parts\/3"}],"metadata":[{"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.library.torontomu.ca\/tartuffe\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters\/34\/metadata\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.library.torontomu.ca\/tartuffe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"chapter-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.library.torontomu.ca\/tartuffe\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapter-type?post=34"},{"taxonomy":"contributor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.library.torontomu.ca\/tartuffe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/contributor?post=34"},{"taxonomy":"license","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.library.torontomu.ca\/tartuffe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/license?post=34"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
