DAVID
And I of vanity should prick it in?
I a mere shepherd innocent of wile!
A singer music-maudled and no more.
[As she goes, stung with chagrin.]
The daughter of king Saul has yet to learn.
[From looking after her, he turns toward Michal, and, sighing, slowly approaches her.]
The vaunting of this victory is done.
We are alone at last.
MICHAL
