Act V, Scene iii | RAGUENEAU: |  Since you are here, 'tis best she should not know! | | I was going to your friend just now—was but | | A few steps from the house, when I saw him | | Go out. I hurried to him. Saw him turn | | The corner. . .suddenly, from out a window | | Where he was passing—was it chance?. . .may be! | | A lackey let fall a large piece of wood. |
| RAGUENEAU: | | I ran—I saw. . . |
| LE BRET: | | 'Tis hideous! |
| RAGUENEAU: | | Saw our poet, Sir—our friend— | | Struck to the ground—a large wound in his head! |
| LE BRET: | | He's dead? |
| RAGUENEAU: | | No—but—I bore him to his room. . . | | Ah! his room! What a thing to see!—that garret! |
| LE BRET: | | He suffers? |
| RAGUENEAU: | | No, his consciousness has flown. |
| LE BRET: | | Saw you a doctor? |
| RAGUENEAU: | | One was kind—he came. |
| LE BRET: | | My poor Cyrano!—We must not tell this | | To Roxane suddenly.—What said this leech?— |
| RAGUENEAU: | | Said,—what, I know not—fever, meningitis!— | | Ah! could you see him—all his head bound up!— | | But let us haste!—There's no one by his bed!— | | And if he try to rise, Sir, he might die! |
| LE BRET (dragging him toward the right): | | Come! Through the chapel! 'Tis the quickest way! |
| ROXANE (appearing on the steps, and seeing Le Bret go away by the colonnade | | leading to the chapel door): | | Monsieur le Bret! | | (Le Bret and Ragueneau disappear without answering): | | Le Bret goes—when I call! | | 'Tis some new trouble of good Ragueneau's. |
| (She descends the steps.) |
