ACT II。
The Poet's Eating´House。
Ragueneau's cook and pastry´shop。 A large kitchen at the corner of
the Rue St。 Honore and the Rue de l'Arbre Sec�察 �which are seen in the
background through the glass door�察�in the gray dawn。
On the left�察 �in the foreground�察 �a counter�察 �surmounted by a stand in
forged iron�察 �on which are hung geese�察 �ducks�察 �and water peacocks。 In
great china vases are tall bouquets of simple flowers�察 �principally yellow
sunflowers。
On the same side�察�farther back�察�an immense open fireplace�察�in front of
which�察�between monster firedogs�察�on each of which hangs a little saucepan�察�
the roasts are dripping into the pans。
On the right�察�foreground with door。
Farther back�察 �staircase leading to a little room under the roof�察 �the
entrance of which is visible through the open shutter。 In this room a table
is laid。 A small Flemish luster is alight。 It is a place for eating and
drinking。 A wooden gallery�察�continuing the staircase�察�apparently leads to
other similar little rooms。
In the middle of the shop an iron hoop is suspended from the ceiling
by a string with which it can be drawn up and down�察�and big game is hung
around it。
The ovens in the darkness under the stairs give forth a red glow。 The
copper pans shine。 The spits are turning。 Heaps of food formed into
pyramids。 Hams suspended。 It is the busy hour of the morning。
Bustle and hurry of scullions�察�fat cooks�察�and diminutive apprentices�察�their
caps profusely decorated with cock's feathers and wings of guinea´fowl。
On metal and wicker plates they are bringing in piles of cakes and
tarts。
Tables laden with rolls and dishes of food。 Other tables surrounded
with chairs are ready for the consumers。
A small table in a corner covered with papers�察�at which Ragueneau is
seated writing on the rising of the curtain。
