El Capitan, Act II: “Return Don Medigua”

[DON CAZARRO, spoken]
Return Don Medigua to his cell and detain the Princess as well. 

[DON MEDIGUA, spoken]
Your Excellency, the prison has but one cell and that is already occupied by Don Medigua. 

[DON CAZARRO, spoken]
Well, lock her up with her husband. 

[DON MEDIGUA, spoken]

[Aside.]

[PRINCESS, spoken]

[ESTRELDA, spoken]

[DON MEDIGUA, spoken, aside]
Toll the bell, for I am coming...
