(Cléonte, as a Turk, with three Pages carrying his outer clothes, Monsieur Jourdain, Covielle, disguised.)
       CLÉONTE
       Ambousahim oqui boraf, Iordina, salamalequi.
       COVIELLE
       That is to say: "Monsieur Jourdain, may your heart be all the year like a flowering rosebush." This is the way of speaking politely in those countries.
       MONSIEUR JOURDAIN
       I am the most humble servant of His Turkish Highness.
       COVIELLE: Carigar camboto oustin moraf .
       CLÉONTE
       Oustin yoc catamalequi basum base alla moran.
       COVIELLE
       He says: "Heaven gives you the strength of lions and the wisdom of serpents."
       MONSIEUR JOURDAIN
       His Turkish Highness honors me too much, and I wish him all sorts of good fortune.
       COVIELLE
       Ossa binamen sadoc babally oracaf ouram.
       CLÉONTE
       Bel-men.
       COVIELLE
       He says that you should go with him quickly to prepare yourself for the ceremony; then you can see your daughter and conclude the marriage.
       MONSIEUR JOURDAIN
       So many things in two words?
       COVIELLE
       Yes; the Turkish language is like that, it says much in few words. Go quickly where he wants.
