Sancho Panza in His Island: Comic Opera in One Act

Ah, yes, I have others to tell you about.
Well then, Mr. handsome gallant; could one
know news of your lover?

What does that mean?

Let us explain a moment.

Speak, speak.

You do not recognize in me Lope Tocho,
nephew of Jean Tocho, your crony.

Ah! My old friend Tocho!... How is
he doing?

Very well. He is dead; but that is of no
matter to the thing. He left me all his wealth, because I am
all alone, and on top of that a good farm of which
I am becoming the farmer.

So much the better, if you are so rich, you will dine
twice; but the golden bit does not make the horse
better. And....

Oh, I like that well; are you not going to play the
haughty one? But it suits him!

But I beg you, Dame Therese; leave us.

But look here, is there a need for so many reasons to
tell him that his daughter is grown up like father and mother,
that she asks to be provided for, and
that it is much better to marry her off than not to
let her commit some folly? Here is a good boy
who asks for her.

How?
