Through the latter part of this act a beautiful sun-set has taken place; twilight has succeeded; and the stage has grown gradually dark during the conversation between Hubert and Valmore. The distance is now filled with boats, elegantly illuminated, in which all the company bestow themselves and depart, — music playing all the while. Valmore on one side of the stage appears a pray to the most agonising irresolution. Hubert and Fourbin on the other, seem to shrink from observation.

Behind the windows at the back part of the stage, Hubert and Fourbin appear in the garden. Fourbin is disguised, wearing a wig, a cane, and an oldfashion'd shop-keeper's dress, in which it is not possible to recognise him. Hubert and Fourbin advance softly, and are unperceiv'd by D'Anglade , who, seated at his bureau, has opened the box, and taken a casket out of it, regarding, alternately, the diamonds and the door which conducts to the apartment of Madam D'Anglade. Hubert points out D'Anglade to Fourbin , and also the door at which he is to present himself. They then shake hands and retire at different sides.

D'Anglade takes the notes, goes to his writing table, and examines them.
