heart�察�and I would like to have Become my husband�察�by your choice�拭�

    ORGON Tartuffe。 

    MARIANE  But�察 �father�察  �I   protest it   isn't true� �Why  should   you   make 

me tell this dreadful lie�拭�

    ORGON Because   I  mean   to have   it   be  the  truth。  Let this   suffice  for 

you�此�I've settled it。 

    MARIANE What�察�father�察�you would 。 。 。 �拭�

    ORGON Yes�察�child�察�I'm resolved To graft Tartuffe into my family。 So 

he must be your husband。 That I've settled。 And since your duty 。 。 

    ��Seeing Dorine�� What are you doing there�拭�Your curiosity is keen�察�my 

girl�察�To make you come eavesdropping on us so。 

    DORINE Upon my word�察�I don't know how the rumour Got startedif 

'twas guess´work or mere chance But I had heard already of this match�察�

And treated it as utter stuff and nonsense。 

    ORGON What� �Is the thing incredible�拭�

    DORINE So much so I don't believe it even from yourself�察�sir。 

    ORGON I know a way to make you credit it。

     ORGON I'm telling you just what will happen shortly。 

     DORINE Stuff� �

     ORGON Daughter�察�what I say is in good earnest。 

     DORINE There�察�there�察�don't take your father seriously�察�He's fooling。 

     ORGON But I tell you 。 。 。 

     DORINE No。 No use。 They won't believe you。 

     ORGON If I let my anger 。 。 。 

     DORINE Well�察�then�察�we do believe you�察�and the worse For you it is。 

What� �Can a grown´up man With that expanse of beard across his face Be 

mad enough to want 。 。 。�拭�

     ORGON You hark me�此�You've taken on yourself here in this house A 

sort of free familiarity That I don't like�察�I tell you frankly�察�girl。 

     DORINE There�察�there�察�let's not get angry�察�sir�察�I beg you。 But are you 

making game of everybody�拭�Your daughter's not cut out for bigot's meat�察�

And he has more important things to think of。 Besides�察�what can you gain 

by   such   a   match�拭   �How   can   a   man   of   wealth�察  �like   you�察  �go   choose   A 

wretched vagabond for son´in´law�拭�

     ORGON You hold your tongue。 And know�察�the less he has�察�The better 

cause   have   we   to   honour   him。   His   poverty   is   honest   poverty�察  �It   should 

exalt him more than worldly grandeur�察�For he has let himself be robbed of 

all�察�Through careless disregard of temporal things And fixed attachment to 

the things eternal。 My help may set him on his feet again�察�Win back his 

propertya   fair   estate   He   has   at   home�察  �so   I'm   informedand   prove   him 

For what he is�察�a true´born gentleman。 

     DORINE  Yes�察  �so   he   says   himself。   Such   vanity   But   ill   accords   with 

pious   living�察  �sir。   The   man   who   cares   for   holiness   alone   Should   not   so 

loudly boast his name and birth�察�The humble ways of genuine devoutness 

Brook not so much display of earthly pride。 Why should he be so vain�拭 � 。 。 

But I offend you�此  �Let's leave  his   rank�察�then��take the man   himself�此  �Can 

you without   compunction give   a man   Like him  possession of   a girl   like 

her�拭�Think what a scandal's sure to come of it� �Virtue is at the mercy of 

the fates�察�When a girl's married to a man she hates�察�The best intent to live 

an   honest   woman   Depends   upon   the   husband's   being   human�察 �And   men 

whose   brows   are   pointed   at   afar   May   thank   themselves   their   wives   are 



                                               21

what they are。 For to be true is more than woman can�察�With husbands built 

upon   a   certain   plan�察�And   he   who   weds   his   child   against   her   will   Owes 

heaven account for it�察�if   she do ill。 Think then   what perils   wait on   your 

design。 

     ORGON ��to Mariane�� So� �I must learn what's what from her�察�you see� �

     DORINE You might do worse than follow my advice。 

     ORGON   Daughter�察  �we   can't   waste   time   upon   this   nonsense�察  �I   know 

what's   good   for   you�察  �and   I'm   your   father。   True�察  �I   had   promised   you   to 

young Valere�察�But�察�first�察�they tell me he's inclined to gamble�察�And then�察�I 

fear   his   faith   is   not   quite   sound。   I   haven't   noticed   that   he's   regular   At 

church。 

     DORINE You'd have him run there just when you do。 Like those who 

go on purpose to be seen�拭�

     ORGON I don't ask your opinion on the matter。 In short�察�the other is in 

Heaven's best graces�察�And that is riches quite beyond compare。 This match 

will bring you every joy you long for�察�'Twill be all steeped in sweetness 

and   delight。   You'll   live   together�察  �in   your   faithful   loves�察  �Like   two   sweet 

children�察�like two turtle´doves�察�You'll never fail to quarrel�察�scold�察�or tease�察�

And you may do with him whate'er you please。 

     DORINE With him�拭�Do naught but give him horns�察�I'll warrant。 

     ORGON Out on thee�察�wench� �

     DORINE I tell   you he's cut out for't�察�However great your   daughter's 

virtue�察�sir�察�His destiny is sure to prove the stronger。 

     ORGON Have done with interrupting。 Hold your tongue。 Don't poke 

your nose in other people's business。 

     DORINE   ��She   keeps   interrupting   him�察  �just   as   he   turns   and   starts   to 

speak to his daughter��。 If I make bold�察�sir�察�'tis for your own good。 

     ORGON You're too officious�察�pray you�察�hold your tongue。 

     DORINE 'Tis love of you 。 。 。 

     ORGON I want none of your love。 

     DORINE Then I will love you in your own despite。 

     ORGON You will�察�eh�拭�

     DORINE   Yes�察  �your   honour's   dear   to   me�察  �I   can't   endure   to   see   you 

made the butt Of all men's ridicule。

     ORGON Won't you be still�拭�

    DORINE 'Twould be a sin to let you make this match。 

     ORGON Won't you be still�察�I say�察�you impudent viper� �

    DORINE What� �you are pious�察�and you lose your temper�拭�

     ORGON   I'm   all   wrought   up�察  �with   your   confounded   nonsense�察  �Now�察�

once for all�察�I tell you hold your tongue。 

    DORINE Then mum's the word�察�I'll take it out in thinking。

you understand� �

     ��Turning   to   his   daughter。�� As   a   wise   father�察  �I've   considered   all   With 

due deliberation。 

    DORINE I'll go mad If I can't speak。 ��She stops the instant he turns his 

head。�� 

     ORGON Though he's no lady's man�察�Tartuffe is well enough 。 。 。 

    DORINE A pretty phiz� �

     ORGON        So  that�察 �although    you   may   not   care  at  all  For  his  best 

qualities 。 。 。 

    DORINE A handsome dowry� �

     ��Orgon turns and stands in front of her�察�with arms folded�察�eyeing her。�� 

Were I in her place�察�any man should rue it Who married me by force�察�that's 

mighty   certain�察  �I'd   let   him   know�察  �and   that   within   a   week�察  �A   woman's 

vengeance isn't far to seek。 

     ORGON ��to Dorine�� Sonothing that I say has any weight�拭�

    DORINE Eh�拭�What's wrong now�拭�I didn't speak to you。 

     ORGON What were you doing�拭�

    DORINE Talking to myself。 

     ORGON Oh� �Very well。 ��Aside。�� Her monstrous impudence Must be 

chastised with one good slap in the face。

he glances toward her�察�but she stands still and says not a word。�� ��3�А�

lifted calmly arranges her hair and her cap。 Orgon goes on�察 �Think of the 

husband 。 。 。; and stops before the middle of his sentence to turn and catch 

the beginning of Dorine's gesture�察�but he is too quick this time�察�and Dorine 

stands     looking    at  his  furious   countenance      with    a  sweet   and    gentle 

expression。 He turns and goes on�察�and the obstinate Dorine again lifts her 

hand    behind    his  shoulder    to  urge   Mariane    to  resistance�此  �this  time   he 

catches her�察�but just   as he swings his shoulder  to   give her  the  promised 

blow�察�she stops him by changing   the intent of her gesture�察�and   carefully 

picking from the top of his sleeve a bit of fluff which she holds carefully 

between   her   fingers�察  �then   blows   into   the   air�察  �and   watches   intently   as   it 

floats   away。    Orgon    is  paralysed    by  her   innocence    of  expression�察    �and 

compelled to hide his rage。Regnier�察�/Le Tartuffe des Comediens/。�А�
