Good Margaret, go quickly to the sitting room.Beatrice is there, talking to the prince and Claudio.Tell her that Ursula and myself are in the garden discussing the love that someone has for her. Beatrice must hide -she must hear but not be seen. There is a place behind the trees – you know it well-Where my dear friend can hear this talk of love.
Your job is easy -leave Beatrice there alone and we will do the rest.
