) They are coming--she has not changed at all.
SCENE V.
(Through the door enter Stella, Mrs. Czeska, George, followed by
Drahomir, arm and arm with the Prince Starogrodzki.)
Stella.--Here is our doctor! Our dear doctor! How do you do? We were
looking for you!
Czeska (bows ceremoniously).--Especially the prince.
Jozwowicz (kissing Stella's hand).--Good evening, princess. I have
also been anxious to return. I have come to stay for a longer time--to
rest. Ah, the prince! How is Your Highness's health?
Prince (shaking hands).--Dear boy. I am not well. You did well to
come. You must see at once what is the matter with me.
Jozwowicz.--But now Your Highness will introduce me to these
gentlemen.
Prince.--It is true. Doctor Jozwowicz, the minister of my interior
affairs--I said it well, did I not? For you do look after my health.
Count Karol Drahomir.
Drahomir.--Your name is familiar to me, therefore, strictly speaking,
I alone ought to introduce myself.
Doctor.--Sir.
Prince (introducing).--Mr. George Pretwic, our neighbor, and--(Stella
makes a sign) and--I wish to say--
George.--If I am not mistaken, your schoolmate.
Doctor.--I did not wish to be the first to recollect.
George.--I am glad to see you. It is quite a long time since then, but
we were good comrades. Truly, I am very glad, especially after what I
have heard here about you.
Drahomir.
