PALOMIDES.
I too was sleeping. I heard nothing, and I had a band across my eyes ere I could open them. I struggled in the darkness; but they were stronger than I…. I must have passed under deep vaults, for I felt the cold fall on my shoulders; and I went down so far I could not count the steps…. Did no one speak to thee?
ALLADINE.
No; no one spoke. I heard some one weeping as he walked; and then I fainted….
PALOMIDES (kissing her).
Alladine!
ALLADINE.
How gravely thou dost kiss me!…
