Adah!

The child is sunken in a sleep.

Yet would I have her near me in this night,

And hear again the boding of her tale.

Unto the blind the vision and the awe

Of the invisible sway ever in,

The shadow of nativities that lead

Upon fatality.

Girl! Adah! girl!

[The wind passes. Adah enters from a chamber, rubbing her eyes.]
