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.
