Cherubino. WTien the Count and Countess
returned and the Count had wrung from his
wife the confession that the page was there,
half undressed, the sudden appearance of Su-
sanna in the door of the apartment took both
completely by surprise. But the Countess
quickly gained her composure, and the two
women now turned the tables upon the Count,
who ruefully asked his wife's forgiveness for
his unjust suspicions. The Countess granted
it in good grace. Figaro came in, to accom-
pany Susanna to the wedding. A little while
after him, as his unlucky stars would have it,
Antonio, the gardener, half intoxicated, carry-
ing a couple of broken flower-pots, made his
appearance in the room. ^ He insisted he must
see his master. He wanted to lodge a com-
plaint against some one who had jumped out
of the window from the Countess' room, broken
some of the flower-pots, and escaped through
the garden. Figaro with great difficulty quieted
the Count's newly arisen suspicions, by avow-
ing himself the culprit.
At this moment ^larcellina, duly accompa-
nied' by her counsel, appeared and lodged a
complaint with the Count against Figaro for
breach of promise. Almaviva, inwardly re-
joicing at the turn afl"airs took, and thinking
to profit by it, evinced great interest in the
case. When it came to the trial, however, it
was discovered that Figaro was the child of
Marcellina and Doctor Bartolo, by which
timely discovery every obstac le to Figaro's and
Susanna's union was removed.
Accordingly the festivals took thtlr course.
In the meanwhile Susanna, upon the advice of
the Countess, and without the knowledge of
her betrothed, carried on the intrigue originally
plotted by Figaro. She sought an interview
with the Count, and expressed her willingness
to conform to his wishes. Afterwards she
\\Tote a note to him — dictated by the Countess
— appointing time and place of a meeting. Of
this appointment Figaro — through the sim-
plicity of a peasant girl, entrusted with the
Count's answer to Susanna — got wind, and
forth\nth collected a number of ^out villagers,
who were to administer to the Count a sound
cudgeling under cover of the darkness.
When evening came round, the two ladies
— the Countess dressed as Susanna, and Su-
sanna as the Countess — repaired to the spot
appointed in the letter, a secluded part of the
park with a pavilion on either side. Figaro
lay already in waiting, of which the ladies were
well aware. Susanna then withdrew into the
shade of the thicket, leaving her mistress alone
waiting for the Count.
Suddenly Cherubino came in, who, it seems,
had made an appointment with Barbarina, the
gardener's daughter, on the same spot. Mis-
taking the Countess for Susanna, he dallied
with her, kissing her much against her will, till
at last the Count interfered, when the boy ran
into the pavilion to the left, where Barbarina
was already waiting for him. The Countess
now received graciously the passionate words
of her husband, intended for Susanna. Figaro,
who was duped as much 'as the Count, then
made a noise, and the Count sent the supposed
Susanna into the pavilion on the right, expect-
ing to join her ere long. Susanna mantiged to
meet P'igaro. But the cunning barber soon
looked through her disguise, and then took an
active part in the joke, by addressing her as
the Countess, in passionate language. This
was well done, for the Count overheard him,
and seized him l)V the collar. Susanna ran
into the pavilion on the left. The Count then,
without releasing his hold on Figaro, called
his servants and guests, who came in large
numbers with lights and torches, and bade
them to be witnesses of his dishonor. After
dis[)osing of Cherubino and Barbarina, who
were also in the left-hand pavilion, he dragged
out the suj)posed Coimtcss, who fell down on
her knees ])efore him, im])luring his forgiveness.
But the Count acted the enraged husband in
good earnest. Suddenly the real Countess ap-
peared from the pavilion on the right. Before
the Count could fully realize his awkward
j)osition, the Countess, with the assistance of
Susanna and Figaro, hushed matters up, and
hurried the witnesses of this most extraordinary
denouement off to the festivities in honor of
Figaro's marriage, which were ^oing on in the
castle. The Count must be supposed to be
forever healed from his jealousy, and become
more faithfully attached than ever before to
his Rosina.
