Exeunt most of the gipsies. Some couples remain: Fédya with Másha,
Afrémov with Kátya, and the officer with Gásha. The musician writes.
A gipsy man strums a valse tune on the guitar.
FÉDYA. But I'm married, and your choir won't allow it....
MÁSHA. The choir is one thing, one's heart's another! I love those I
love, and hate those I hate.
FÉDYA. Ah! This is good! Isn't it?
MÁSHA. Of course it's good--we've jolly visitors, and are all merry.
Enter gipsy man.
GIPSY [to Fédya] A gentleman is asking for you.
FÉDYA. What gentleman?
GIPSY. I don't know.... Well dressed, wears a sable overcoat--
FÉDYA. A swell? Well, ask him in. [Exit Gipsy].
AFRÉMOV. Who has come to see you here?
FÉDYA. The devil knows! Who can want me?
