MUSICIAN. It's really simple, except the rhythm....  
FÉDYA [waves his hand, goes to Másha, and sits down on sofa beside her]  
Oh, Másha, Másha! How you do turn me inside-out!  
MÁSHA. And how about what I asked you for?  
FÉDYA. What? Money?... [Takes some out of his trouser-pocket] Here, take  
it!  
Másha laughs, takes it, and hides it in her bosom.  
FÉDYA [to the gipsies] Who can make it out? She opens heaven for me, and  
then asks for money to buy scents with! [To Másha] Why, you don't in the  
least understand what you're doing!  
MÁSHA. Not understand indeed! I understand that when I am in love, I try  
to please my man, and sing all the better.  
FÉDYA. Do you love me?  
MÁSHA. Looks like it!  
FÉDYA. Wonderful! [Kisses her].
