uniform。'
COLONEL Ladies; the Duke has at length determined to select a
bride!
'General excitement'
DUKE 'R。' I have a great gift to bestow。 Approach; such of you
as are truly lovely。 'All the MAIDENS come forward; bashfully;
except JANE and PATIENCE。' In personal appearance you have all
that is necessary to make a woman happy。 In common fairness; I
think I ought to choose the only one among you who has the
misfortune to be distinctly plain。 'Girls retire disappointed。'
Jane!
JANE 'leaving BUNTHORNE's arms' Duke! 'JANE and DUKE embrace。
BUNTHORNE is utterly disgusted。'
BUN。 Crushed again!

affectionately at it。'
SAPHIR; ELLA;

BUNTHORNE and

With a tulip or li…ly!
