Tartuffe; or, The Hypocrite · 1664
Act IV, Scene 2
Translated by Curtis Hidden Page (1908)
[ELMIRE, MARIANE, CLEANTE, DORINE]
DORINE (to Cleante)
Sir, we beg you
To help us all you can in her behalf;
She's suffering almost more than heart can bear;
This match her father means to make to-night
Drives her each moment to despair. He's coming.
Let us unite our efforts now, we beg you,
And try by strength or skill to change his purpose.
