CURTAIN
THE SECOND ACT
The scene and the time are unchanged, although one minute may have elapsed since the last word was spoken. During this time Agnus has realized his misfortune. His face has ceased to be agonized and is now only blank.

The light is stationary.1
1 It must be remembered that when the word Agnus is written, it means Agnus’s spirit; not his body, that is now The Devil’s.
