misery Of intolerable desire, never appeased! Its fury is upon me. Orpheus Save me from the brink of such despair, — Save me, for I am torn by wild beasts' fangs !
Orpheus. / stand upon the brink of such despair.
Persephone [suddenly coming to herself \ Give me thy lute that I may break it. Give Me thy lute and cease thy singing. I Will hear no more. Wilt thou not pause at last 64 ORPHEUS AMONG THE SHADES From torturing me ? What need was there to sing — Since I had half forgotten — how I, even... I, Might have escaped back to the earth and back To the sun sparkling on the sea, and back To my mother, to my mother and human love ! — Ah! make me forget again and thou shalt take Eurydice to thy living breast and arms! Make me instantly forget. I would forget All sights, all sounds of the beloved earth!
The First Shade. The sheltering mists have fallen away from me!
Second Shade. Woe, woe! to see his face only in dreams!
Third Shade. My lover sleeps in a strange woman's arms.
