BEA. Why, what more can there be?
FID. Mistress, in the night the people of Fiori Rose like a wind and swept the Duke's men down Like leaves! Your throne is empty,--and awaits you!
[Enter Giulietta,]
GIU. Madam.
BEA. Ay, Giulietta.
GIU. Madam, last night, Before you came, she bade me tell you something, And not forget. 'Tis this: That the foot stumbles, The hand doth awkward things, and the foolish tongue Says what it would not say,--but in the heart Truth lies,--and all is well 'twixt her and you.
[She starts to go out, and turns back at the door.]
She bade me above all things to forget not The last: that all is well 'twixt her and you. [Exit.]
BEA. [Slowly and with great content.]
She is not gone from me. Oh, there be places Farther away than Death! She is returned From her long silence, and rings out above me Like a silver bell!--Let us go back, Fidelio, And gather up the fallen stones, and build us Another tower.
