Don't you recognize me?

Angelotti
You!...Cavaradossi. God has sent you.
Don't you recognize me?
Has prison changed me so much?

Angelotti
I've just escaped from the Castel Sant'Angelo

Cavaradossi
Depend on me!

 
Hide!

Tosca is heard approaching.


Cavaradossi
Hide! She's a jealous woman. I'll get rid of her.

Angelotti
I'm so weak...

   
Take this food.
Cavaradossi
Take this food. Hurry!


Angelotti takes the food basket and hides back in the chapel. Cavaradossi lets Tosca into the sanctuary.
