ACT I.
SCENE I.
The Gardens of the Prince del Piombino’s Villa. – At the back a River, beyond which, Picturesque Country. On the P.S. side, the Entrance to the Villa. On the O.P. side, a small Pavilion.)
Enter QUADRO, STRUTT, and LISETTA, from the Villa, meeting male and female Villagers.
LIS: And you think yourself a vastly great man, Mr Strutt, I suppose.
STRUTT: Philosophers are not content with thinking, I know it. My master’s a great man, and I’m like the moon to the sun, I shine with a reflected brightness.
QUAD: Great man, indeed! I should like to know what there is great about either of you. A couple of adventurers, whom my poor silly dupe of a master, (Heaven help him!) has brought from that beggarly place, Germany; and I suppose you’ll never leave him whilst he has got a ducat.
STRUTT: Pooh, for his ducats! We want his ducats, indeed! when we could make gold out of any rubbish – your worthless head, for instance, Signor Quadro. My master is the most profound philosopher, and consequently the greatest man that ever lived. To tell you what he can do is impossible; but what he cannot do, it would be still more difficult to mention.
QUAD: Yes, his way of making gold, I fancy, is by conveying it out of other people’s pockets. He may make gold, but he’d much rather have it made to his hand, I’ve a notion.
STRUTT: Signor Quadro, it is fortunate for you that my master does not hear you, and that (considering the choice bottles of Catanian wine that you have from time to time been pleased to open for me) I’m too discreet to tell him; – for, oh! signor Quadro, his power is terrible; – he could prevent you from ever passing a quiet night again!
QUAD: When I’ve got three quarts of good Rhenish in my skin, I’ll give him leave, if he can. Your master is a water-drinker, sir, he keeps no butler; I never knew any good of a man that drank water and kept no butler.
STRUTT: At all events, Master Quadro, that’s an offence which you cannot lay to my charge; I have the most philosophical principles upon the subject – I drink water, Signor Quadro, only when I can’t get any thing better.
QUAD: And that’s generally the case, I fancy, when you can’t find some good-natured simpleton, like the Prince del Piombino, to keep you and your master together. Instead of board-wages, he billets you upon the kitchen of any body that’s fool enough to take you into it.
STRUTT: Be assured of this, Signor Quadro, I am not ungrateful; when
