My uncle is bent upon marrying my +cousin to Villebrequin, and things have gone so far, that I believe +the wedding would have taken place to-day if you were not loved by +her. However, as my cousin told me the secret of all the love she +feels for you, and as we were almost driven to desperation through the +avarice of our niggardly uncle, we thought of a capital device to +prevent the marriage: at the present moment my cousin affects to be +ill, and the foolish old man, who is easily deceived, has just sent me +to fetch a doctor. Could you not find one, some friend of yours, who +would be on our side, and order the invalid to go into the country for +a change of air? The old man will be sure to send my cousin to live in +the pavilion, which is at the bottom of our garden. In that way you +will be able to see her, unknown to our uncle, and marry her; then let +him and Villebrequin curse as much as they please.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Val</span>. +But what means have I of finding so suddenly the doctor I want, +and who would risk so much to serve me? I tell you frankly I know of +none.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sab</span>. +Now I think of it, why don't you have your servant dressed up as +a doctor? There is no one more easy to dupe than the old fellow.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Val</span>. +But Sganarelle is a blockhead who will spoil everything. However, +as we have nobody else, we must make use of him. But where shall we +find him?——Ah! here he is in the very nick of time. +(<i>Exit</i> <span class="smallcaps">Sabine</span>.)</p> + +<p> </p> + +<h3>SCENE II——VALÈRE, SGANARELLE.</h3> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Val</span>. +Ah! my poor Sganarelle, how glad I am to see you! I want your +help in a most important business, but as I do not know what you can +do …</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +What I can do, sir? Only make use of me in your more important +business, in things of consequence: for instance, send me to see what +time it is by the clock; send me to the market to ask the price of +butter; send me to water a horse; it is then that you will be able to +judge of my talents.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Val</span>. +I ask for none of these things, I want you to play the part of a +doctor.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +I, a doctor, sir! I am ready to do all you please, but as for +being a doctor, I say no; I am your servant, I will be nothing of the +kind. I ask you how I should set about it; goodness me, sir, you are +only laughing at me.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Val</span>. +If you will try, I will give you ten pistoles.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +Ah! ten pistoles; well, I won't say I am no doctor, for you see, +sir, I am not so scrupulous as to tell you the whole truth. But +supposing I am a doctor, where shall I go?</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Val</span>. +To the old man Gorgibus, to see his daughter who is ill; but you +are a blockhead who, instead of doing what we want, might …</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +Ah! sir, don't be anxious; I'll answer for it that I can kill +anybody as well as any doctor in the town. The proverb usually is, +"after death comes the doctor," but you will see that if I have +anything to do with it, it will be, "after the doctor comes death!" +But now, while I think of it, it must be difficult to play the doctor; +and if I do nothing right…?</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Val</span>. +There will be nothing difficult to do in this case. Gorgibus is a +simpleton, a boor, who will readily believe everything you say, +provided you speak to him of Hippocrates, of Galen, and that you have +brass enough.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +You mean that I shall have to speak of philosophy and +mathematics. Leave that to me; if he is a man as easily deceived as +you say, I answer for everything. You have only to find me a doctor's +gown, tell me what you expect from me, and give me my diploma, that +is, my ten pistoles. +(<i>Exeunt</i> <span class="smallcaps">Valère</span> +<i>and</i> <span class="smallcaps">Sganarelle</span>.)</p> + +<p> </p> + +<h3>SCENE III.——GORGIBUS, GROS-RENÉ.</h3> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. +Go quickly and fetch the doctor for my daughter who is very ill; +make haste!</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gr.-Re</span>. +Why the deuce do you think of giving your daughter in marriage +to an old man?

He was fortunately shown to me, and I bring him +to you. He is so clever, that I heartily wish I were ill, so that he +might cure me.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. Where is he?</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sab</span>. Close at hand; here he is.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. +Doctor, I am your very humble servant. I sent for you, to come and see +my daughter who is ill; I put all my hopes in you.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +Hippocrates says, and Galen too, with strong reasoning argues, +that a person does not feel well when he is ill. You are right to put +all your hopes in me, for I am the greatest, the cleverest, the wisest +doctor in the vegetable, animal, and mineral faculty.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. I am delighted to hear it.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +Do not imagine that I am an ordinary doctor, a common doctor. +All other doctors compared to me are abortions. I possess wonderful +talents; I am master of many secrets. <i>Salamalec, salamalec.</i> "Hast +thou courage, Rodrigo?"<a href="#fmv3"><span class="small"><sup>3</sup></span></a> +<i>Signor, si; signor, non. Per omnia sæcula +sæculorum.</i> Still, let us see a little. (<i>Feels</i> +<span class="smallcaps">Gorgibus's</span> <i>pulse.</i>)</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sab</span>. +Eh! He is not the patient; it is his daughter who is ill.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +It does not matter: the blood of the father and that of the +daughter are the same; and by the deterioration of the blood of the +father, I can know the illness of the daughter.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. +Ah! doctor, I am greatly afraid that my daughter will die.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +S'death! she must not! she must not indeed have the pleasure of +dying before she has the doctor's prescription. But, Mr. Gorgibus, can +I see your daughter?</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sab</span>. +She is up; I will bring her if you like.</p> + +<p> </p> + +<h3>SCENE V.——SABINE, GORGIBUS, SGANARELLE (<i>as doctor</i>), LUCILE.</h3> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. Well, young lady, so you are ill?</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Luc</span>. Yes, sir.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +So much the worse; it is a proof that you are not quite well. Do +you feel great pains in your head and back?</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Luc</span>. Yes, sir.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +I thought so. Yes, the great doctor I spoke of, in the chapter +he made on the nature of animals, said … a hundred fine things; and +how the humours which have connexion, have much relation to each +other; for instance, as melancholy is the enemy to joy, and as the +bile in going through our body makes us become yellow, and as nothing +is more contrary to good health than illness; so we can say with that +great man that your daughter is very ill. I must give her a +prescription.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. Quick! a table, paper and ink!</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. Is there anybody here who can write?</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. What! do you not know how to write?</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +Ah! I was forgetting; I have so many things to think of, that I +forget the half…. I think it is quite necessary for your daughter to +have a change of air and that she should go and enjoy herself +somewhere in the country.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. +We have a very fine garden, and some rooms attached to it; if you +think it will do, I will send her there.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +Let us go and see the place. (<i>Exeunt.</i>)</p> + +<p> </p> + +<h3>SCENE VI.——THE LAWYER.</h3> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Law</span>. +I have heard that the daughter of Mr. Gorgibus is ill; I must go +and inquire after her health, and offer my services, as the friend of +the whole family. (<i>Knocks.</i>) Is Mr. Gorgibus at home? (<i>Enter</i> +<span class="smallcaps">Gorgibus</span>.) +Having heard of your daughter's illness, I come to tell you +of my entire sympathy, and to put myself at your disposal for all that +may be wanted of me.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. +I have just left the cleverest man in the world.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Law</span>. +Would it not be possible to speak with him for a few moments? +(<span class="smallcaps">Gorgibus</span> <i>fetches</i> +<span class="smallcaps">Sganarelle</span>.)</p> + +<p> </p> + +<h3>SCENE VII.——GORGIBUS, LAWYER, SGANARELLE (<i>as doctor</i>).</h3> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. +Sir, here is a friend of mine, a very clever man, who would be +glad to speak with you.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +I have no leisure, Mr. Gorgibus; I must go and see my patients. +I will not presume to take your place of honour, sir.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Law</span>. +Sir, from what Mr. Gorgibus has told me of your merit and +talents, I had the greatest longing in the world to be introduced to +you, and I have taken the liberty of addressing you on that account. I +hope you will not think it too bold. One must acknowledge that those +who excel in any great science are worthy of high praise; particularly +those whose calling is that of doctor, as much on account of its +utility, as because it is the source of several other sciences. Hence +it is a difficult one to know perfectly, and Hippocrates therefore +says truly in his first treatise: <i>Vita brevis, ars verò longa, +occasio autem praeceps, experimentum periculosum, judicium, difficile.</i></p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +(<i>to</i> <span class="smallcaps">Gorgibus</span>). +<i>Ficile tantina pota baril cambustibus.</i></p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Law</span>. +You are not one of those doctors who only study the medicine +called rational or dogmatic, and I believe that you practise it every +day with great success,——<i>experientia magistra rerum</i>. The first men +who practised medicine were held in such consideration because of that +wonderful science, that they were numbered among the gods on account +of the marvellous cures they performed every day. Not that any one +should despise a doctor who has not given back health to his patient, +since health does not altogether depend on his remedies or his +knowledge: <i>interdum docta plus valet arte malum</i>. Sir, I am afraid I +am importunate; I must leave you, with the hope that next time we meet +I shall have the honour of conversing with you at greater length. Your +time is precious. (<i>Exit</i> <span class="smallcaps">Lawyer</span>.)</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. What do you think of that man?</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +He has some trifling knowledge of things. Had he stopped a +moment longer I would have made him converse upon a lofty and sublime +subject. But now I must leave you (Gorgibus <i>offers him money</i>). Ha! +what are you about?</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. I know that I am indebted to you.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +You are laughing, Mr. Gorgibus! I never take any money, I am not +a mercenary man (<i>takes the money</i>). Your very humble servant.</p> + +<p>(<i>Exit</i> <span class="smallcaps">Sganarelle; +Gorgibus</span> <i>goes into his own house</i>.)</p> + +<p> </p> + +<h3>SCENE VIII.——VALÈRE (<i>alone</i>).</h3> + +<p>I wonder what Sganarelle has done; I have no news from him; I wish I +knew where to meet him (<span class="smallcaps">Sganarelle</span> +<i>returns in his usual dress</i>). Ah! +here he is. Well! Sganarelle, and what have you done since I saw you?</p> + +<p> </p> + +<h3>SCENE IX.——VALÈRE, SGANARELLE.</h3> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +Worked wonders upon wonders! I have done so well, that Gorgibus +really believes me to be a clever doctor. I went to his house, I +ordered him to send his daughter to breathe fresh air, and she is now +in an apartment at the bottom of their garden, so far from the old +man, that you can go and see her without fear of being disturbed.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Val</span>. +Ah! how happy you make me; I shall go at once to see her, without +losing any more time. (<i>Exit.</i>)</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +That old fellow Gorgibus must be a downright fool to allow +himself to be deceived in that fashion (<i>seeing</i> +<span class="smallcaps">Gorgibus</span>). Ah! +goodness, all is lost! well, here's a pretty upset for my doctorship! +But I must try and take him in once more.</p> + +<p> </p> + +<h3>SCENE X.——SGANARELLE, GORGIBUS.</h3> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. Good morning, sir.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +Sir, your servant. You see in me a poor fellow driven to +despair. Do you know a doctor who has only lately come to this town, +and who performs wonderful cures?</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. +Yes, I know him; he has just left my house.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +I am his brother, sir; we are twins, and we resemble each other +like two peas, and are often taken the one for the other.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. +Dev— … deuce take +me,<a href="#fmv4"><span class="small"><sup>4</sup></span></a> +if I did not make the mistake myself; +and what is your name?</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +Narcissus, sir, at your service. You must know that while in his +study I upset two bottles full of essence, which were on the edge of +his table. Will you believe that he was so furious with me, that he +actually drove me out of the house, and said he would never see me +again; so that here I am a poor destitute fellow, without friends, +without help, without anything at all.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. +Don't distress yourself; I will make your peace with your +brother. I am his friend, and I promise you that he shall forgive you. +I will speak to him the first time I meet him.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +I shall be much obliged to you, Mr. Gorgibus. +(<i>Exit</i> <span class="smallcaps">Sganarelle</span>.)</p> + +<p> </p> + +<h3>SCENE XI.——SGANARELLE (<i>dressed as a doctor</i>), GORGIBUS.</h3> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +One must say, that when patients will not follow the advice of +the doctor, but give themselves up to excesses …</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. +Sir, your very humble servant. I have a favour to ask of you.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +What is it, sir? Can I be of service to you?</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. +Sir, I have just met your brother, who is extremely sorry to …</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. He is a scoundrel, Mr. Gorgibus.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. +I assure you that he is so distressed to have put you in a +passion, that …</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. He is a drunkard, Mr. Gorgibus.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. +Eh! sir, do you wish to drive the poor fellow to despair?</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +Do not speak to me of him. Just fancy that scoundrel's impudence +to go and ask you to make his peace for him. I beg of you not to speak +of him to me.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. +In Heaven's name, sir, do it for my sake! If it is in my power to +do anything to oblige you in return, I will do it with all my heart. I +gave him my word, and …</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +You entreat me so much, that although I swore I would never +forgive him, here, shake hands, I forgive him. I assure you that I +impose a great restraint upon myself, and that I must have great +regard for you.

Sir, he says that he is thoroughly +ashamed, and he begs you to come in, so that he may ask you in private +to forgive him. Here is the key, you may come in. I beg of you not to +refuse me, but give me this satisfaction.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +There is nothing I can refuse you. You will hear how I will speak +to him. (<i>within the house</i>) Ah! so you are here, scoundrel!——My brother, +I beg your pardon, I assure you it was not my fault.——Profligate wretch! +I will teach you to dare importune Mr. Gorgibus, and plague him with your +absurdities!——Ah! my brother … ——Hold your tongue, +I tell you.——I would +not disoblige … —— … Be silent, rascal.——</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gr.-Re</span>. +(<i>coming forward</i>). Who do you think is in your house at present?</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. +Why! it is the Doctor with his brother Narcissus; they have had a +quarrel, but they are making it up.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gr.-Re</span>. +Deuce take it, if they are more than one!</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +(<i>within the house</i>) Drunkard that you are! I will teach you how +to behave.——He may well look down! He feels he has done wrong, the +good-for-nothing scoundrel! Ah, the hypocrite, how he pretends to be +good!</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gr.-Re</span>. (<i>to</i> +<span class="smallcaps">Gorgibus</span>). +Sir, do ask him, just for fun, to make his +brother show himself at the window.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. +Very well. Sir, pray make your brother show himself at the window.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. (<i>from the window</i>). +He is unworthy of being seen by honourable +people; and, besides, I could not bear to have him by the side of me.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. +Sir, do not refuse me this favour, after all those you have +granted me.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. (<i>from the window</i>). +Truly, Mr. Gorgibus, you have so much power +over me that I can refuse you nothing. Show yourself, scoundrel! +(<i>after having disappeared one moment, he reappears as a valet.</i>) Mr. +Gorgibus, I am so much indebted to you. (<i>Disappears, and reappears +again as doctor.</i>) Well, did you see that picture of drunkenness?</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gr.-Re</span>. (<i>to</i> Gorgibus). +I know they are but one, and to prove it, tell +him that you want to see them both together.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. +But grant me the favour of showing yourself with him, and of +embracing him at the window before me.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. (<i>from the window</i>). +It is a thing I would refuse to any one but +you; but, to show you that I would do anything for your sake, I +consent, though with difficulty, and I wish that he should first ask +you to forgive him for the trouble he has given you.——Yes, Mr. +Gorgibus, I beg your pardon for having troubled you so much; and I +promise you, my brother, in the presence of Mr. Gorgibus, to be so +careful in future that you will never have reason to complain. I beg of +you not to think any more of what is past (<i>he kisses his hat and his +ruff, which he has put at the end of his elbow</i>).</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. Well, did you not see them both?</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gr.-Re</span>. Upon my word, he is a sorcerer!</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +(<i>coming out of the house as doctor</i>). I give you back the key of +your house, sir. I do not wish this scoundrel to come down with me, for +he makes me ashamed of him. I would not, for anything, that he should +be seen with me in this town, where I have some reputation. You can +send him away when you please. I wish you good morning, and am your +humble servant (<i>feigns to go, but, after having thrown down his gown, +enters the house by the window</i>).</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. +I must go, and set this poor fellow free. To say the truth, if his +brother has forgiven him, it is not before ill-treating him very much +(<i>goes into his house, and comes out with</i> +<span class="smallcaps">Sganarelle</span> +<i>as a servant</i>).</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +I thank you very much, sir, for the trouble you have taken and +the kindness you have shown me. I shall be obliged to you for it all my +life.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gr.-Re</span>. +(<i>to</i> <span class="smallcaps">Gorgibus</span>). +Where do you think the doctor is now?</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. He is gone away.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gr.-Re</span>. (<i>who has picked up</i> +<span class="smallcaps">Sganarelle's</span> <i>gown</i>). I hold him under my +arm. There is the knave who played the doctor and deceived you; and, +while he is deceiving you and playing you off, Valère and your daughter +are together, doing all they like.</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Gor</span>. +Ah! how unfortunate I am! But you shall be hanged! you knave! you +scoundrel!</p> + +<p><span class="smallcaps">Sgan</span>. +Why, sir, what good will it do you to hang me? Hear a word or +two, I beg of you. It is true that, thanks to my stratagem, my master +is with your daughter; but, while serving him, I have done you no +wrong. It is a good match for her, both as to birth and money. Believe +me, do not make a scandal which would turn to your shame; but send this +knave here to the devil along with Villebrequin.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit http://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. +To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + http://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + + +</pre> + +</body> +</html> |
