Me with thine image, though the form were mute:

To-day, what happiness! To-day, together,—

Together we may weep!

Konrad.

And wherefore weep?

I wept, thou dost remember, when I tore

Myself for ever from thy dear embrace,

And of my free will died from happiness,

That thus I might designs of blood fulfil.

That too long martyrdom at length is crowned.
