   Alas! alas! and stands it so?

   What friend! and do we let him go away

   In this delusion – let him go away?

   Not call him back immediately, not open

   His eyes, upon the spot?

                He has now opened mine,

   And I see more than pleases me.

                   What is it?

   Curse on this journey!

               But why so? What is it?

   Come, come along, friend! I must follow up

   The ominous track immediately. Mine eyes

   Are opened now, and I must use them. Come!

   What now? Where go you then?

                   To her herself.

                           To —

   To the duke. Come, let us go 'Tis done, 'tis done,

   I see the net that is thrown over him.

   Oh! he returns not to me as he went.

   Nay, but explain yourself.

                 And that I should not

   Foresee it, not prevent this journey! Wherefore

   Did I keep it from him? You were in the right.

   I should have warned him. Now it is too late.

   But what's too late? Bethink yourself, my friend,

   That you are talking absolute riddles to me.

   Come I to the duke's. 'Tis close upon the hour

   Which he appointed you for audience. Come!

   A curse, a threefold curse, upon this journey!
