LESCAUT
Un exempt de police! Gagnons vite le toit!

Le coupable est Monsieur...
et voilà sa complice!
MANON
à Guillot
Misérable!
GUILLOT
à Manon
Mille regrets, Mademoiselle... Mais la partie
était trop belle! Je vous avais bien dit que je
me vengerais!
à Des Grieux
J'ai pris ma revanche, mon maître!
Il faudra vous en consoler...
DES GRIEUX
J'y tâcherai ! Mais je vais commencer par
vous jeter par la fenêtre!
GUILLOT
Par la fenêtre!
LE COMTE
à Des Grieux
Et moi... m'y jetez-vous aussi?
DES GRIEUX
Mon père! vous, ici… vous!

Son père!

A VOICE(without).
Open, in the King's name!
LESCAUT.
The Police! Quick, to the roof !
(He escapes. )
( The door is opened. Officers of police enter with Guillot. )
GUILLOT
(indicating Des Grieux).
This is your prisoner, and yonder (indicating Manon) stands his accomplice. ( To Manon) Extremely sorry, but the play was too good. I told you I would have my revenge. ( To Des Grieux) I have trumped your card, my master, console yourself as best you can.
DES GRIEUX
(fiercely).
Well, I will try and begin on the spot by throwing you from yonder window.
GUILLOT
(with contempt).
From yonder window?
COUNT
(who has entered unperceived).
And I? Shall I be served the same?
DES GRIEUX.
Father! You here! You!
MANON.
His father!
