ACT II.
SCENE I.
A public Garden. In the Back-ground, a Pharo-Table; Dempster and several other Gamblers sitting around it. Apart from the rest, and nearer to the front of the Stage, sits Harrington , with a Bottle of Wine before him: He rests his chin on the head of his Cane; and seems to take little notice of what is going on around him. On the opposite side sits Dumfries , smoking a Pipe. Maxwell walks about with an air of deep affliction: casts a scrutinizing look, now on Harrington , now on Dumfries; then turns for some moments to the Pharo-Table. Despair, Scorn, and a misanthropical aversion for all around him; writhes his Countenance with convulsive movements of the Features.
( For some time, only single words relative to the Game, such as Cinq et Roi — Paroli — Dame et Dame — Soli, &c. — are heard from the Pharo-Table )
( Dempster , at last rising advances; views Maxwell with keen eye, measuring him, as it were, from head to foot: then beckons to him.)
