Walter, Reading from a paper on which he has been writing .
A Forest. Walter sleeping beneath a tree.
Enter Lady with a fawn.
LADY.
The fierce exulting worlds, the motes in rays, The churlish thistles, scented briers, The wind-swept blue-bells on the sunny braes, Down to the central fires,
Exist alike in Love. Love is a sea, Filling all the abysses dim Of lornest space, in whose deeps regally Suns and their bright broods swim.
