SCENE II.
A Summer-house in the Garden.(Margaret comes springing in, and hides herself behind the door of the summer-house. She places the point of her finger on her lips, and looks through a rent.)
MARGARET.
He comes!
FAUST.
(coming up.)
Thou cunning soul, thus trick'st me thou?
I have thee now!
(He kisses her.)
MARGARET.
(clasping him and returning the kiss.)
Thou best of men, with my whole heart I love thee!
(Mephistopheles heard knocking.)
FAUST.
(stamping.)
Who's there?
144
A friend!
FAUST.
A beast!
MEPHISTOPHELES.
'Tis time now to remove thee.
MARTHA.
(coming up.)
Yes, Sir, 'tis getting late.
FAUST.
May I not take you home?
MARGARET.
My mother would—farewell!
FAUST.
And must I leave you then?
Farewell!
MARTHA.
Adieu!
MARGARET.
Right soon to meet again!
(Exeunt Faust and Mephistopheles.)
MARGARET.
(alone.)
Dear God! what such a man as this
Can think on any theme you may!
I stand ashamed, and answer yes
To every word that he may say.
I wonder what a man, so learned as he,
Can find in a poor simple girl like me.
(Exit.)
