| JACQUELINE. | ||
| Why dost thou sigh and moan? | ||
| Ah, why? ah, why? | ||
| Mad, merry Jacqueline, That danced from morn till e'en — |
||
| Good-bye! good-bye! | ||
| Yea, for all mirth hath flown; The strings have all one tone — |
||
| Ah, why? ah, why? | ||
DEVIL (not heeding JACQUELINE — to himself). Haste, Saida! haste! thy lord's home-coming will thwart thee an' thou dost not use despatch!
JACQUELINE seats herself upon the ground near the DEVIL.
| JACQUELINE. | ||
| It is the lute that sings, | ||
| Not I! not I! | ||
| Haply some prisoned heart That once had felt love's smart |
||
| Doth wake and cry! | ||
| Nay, it is love's own wings That beat the trembling strings — |
||
| Not I! not I! | ||
