GRUMBKOW (_in the door_).
Your Majesty is in such a merry mood--
SECKENDORF.
Could it be the arrival of the courier--? KING (_indifferently_). Oh, yes. A courier came--
GRUMBKOW.
From Hanover?
KING.
From Hanover.
SECKENDORF.
With news of importance, Your Majesty?
KING.
News of importance!
GRUMBKOW.
Concerning English affairs, doubtless?
KING.
English affairs!
SECKENDORF.
Doubtless the East Indian commercial treaties.
KING.
No--no.
GRUMBKOW.
The Dutch s.h.i.+pping agreement?
KING (_enjoying their curiosity_).
Something of that nature. Good morning, gentlemen.
GRUMBKOW (_aside_).
He is in a desperate mood again.
SECKENDORF (_aside, going out_).
Thirty-six thalers--twelve places--the orphans--we must find the combination! [_They go out_.]
SCENE III
KING.
They've gone. At last I have a moment to myself. [EVERSMANN _comes in_.]
I am supremely happy.
EVERSMANN.
My respectful congratulations.
KING.
Thankee-now just imagine--oh, yes--no. [_Aside_.] No one must know of it.
EVERSMANN.
Did Your Majesty intend to--
KING.
Change my clothes? Yes--take this coat off; we'll spare no expense. They shall see that I possess wealth; they shall see that though I may be parsimonious ordinarily, still I can spend as well as any of them when an occasion offers. An occasion like this--[_with an out-burst_.]
Eversmann, just imagine! [_Remembering_.] Oh, yes.
EVERSMANN (_takes off the_ KING'S _coat_).
Will Your Majesty put on the embroidered uniform?
KING.
The embroidered uniform, Eversmann. I am expecting guests to whom all honor must be shown. Great honor--for when it concerns the arrival of persons who--[_He sits down_.] Take off my boots. [EVERSMANN _pulls off the boots with difficulty_.] Has the Prince of Baireuth been here yet?
EVERSMANN.
Is Your Majesty going to all this trouble on his account?
KING.
On his account? Possibly. [_Aside_.] I'll lead them all a dance.
[_Aloud_.] Zounds! Villain! Rascal! My corns! I believe the rogue is hurting me on purpose--because I won't tell him anything.
