Nefertiti

My beloved. (Embrace.) Mine … for ever and ever … all our future lives.

Menophis

The Temple was a dream. Your beauty makes me see it. (Breaks off as he sees Rames and Sethos approaching through the palms.) Rames comes. (Makes to hide.) Great One of Visions!

Nefertiti

(Triumphantly.) And Sethos with him. Let them see us both. (Catches his arm.) Do not hide, but tell them boldly of your glorious choice.

[Rames and Sethos have been talking together. Sethos now turns and goes off towards the Temple, walking slowly with bowed head, but looking back over his shoulder sometimes. Disappears. Rames comes slowly forward. Holds up his hands to bless them.

Rames

(Smiling gravely.) May Aton bless you both—now—and in all lives to come.

Nefertiti
