Voices. Listen! Listen!—The name! They begin to cry the name!
The distant sound of voices is heard. Every one in the scene save Satni is listening intently.
Rheou. The name! The name!
He mounts the terrace. The setting sun reddens the heavens.
Satni [to Yaouma] At last I find you again, Yaouma. And you wear still the chain of maidenhood. You have waited for me?
Yaouma. Yes, Satni, I have waited for you.
Satni. The memory of you went with me always.
Yaouma. Listen!—[Distant sound of voices].
A Woman. Methinks 'tis Raouit of the next village.
A Man. No! No! 'Tis not that name.
