这场戏：带原稿上门求职位
第 10 章 · 共 25 章 · 3'40"
康斯坦茨瞒着莫扎特，捧着丈夫的原稿来找萨列里求职位。她苦笑说 Money simply slips through his fingers（钱就这么从他指缝里溜走），萨列里却先请她坐下吃点心，慢悠悠不肯当场看稿。直到她说这些全是 originals（原稿），他愣住了。想学怎么求人、怎么描述一个人管不住钱，这几句很实用。

康斯坦茨瞒着莫扎特登门，替丈夫争取宫廷职位：She says it's urgent（她说有急事），她开口 on behalf of my husband（代丈夫来），还 I brought samples of his work（带来了他的作品）。萨列里先给一句 warmest regards（最诚挚的问候），却要她 Leave them with me（把稿子留下）。她不肯：he doesn't know I'm here（他不知道我在这儿），Sir, we're desperate（我们走投无路了），Money simply slips through his fingers（钱就这么从他指缝里溜走）。萨列里端出 Capezzoli di Venere（维纳斯的乳头），说自己 wasn't born a court composer（并不是生来就是宫廷作曲家）。最后她透露这些全是 originals（原稿），莫扎特从不 make copies（誊抄）。想学求人和抱怨伴侣不会理财，很实用。
