As they go off, DARINE enters.
| Darine. | ||||
| Triumphant I! Triumphant I! Here is the charm! |
||||
| Now to devise a plan to gain my end: | ||||
| If I restore his strong sword arm, | ||||
| He will become my friend, my friend. | ||||
| But will it gain the love That I prize all above? |
||||
| That all-enthralling love which I would
fain Yield up my very fairyhood to gain! |
||||
| And how shall I attain that dream? | ||||
| Oh, god of impudence, lend me thine art! | ||||
| I have bethought me of a scheme | ||||
| That should enchain his heart! | ||||
| No matter sin or shame So, I fulfil my aim — |
||||
| The dictates of the heart must be obeyed. | ||||
| So, god of impudence, lend me, lend me thine aid! | ||||
| Lend me thine aid! | ||||
| Triumphant I! Triumphant I! Triumphant I! |
