LUCIA
I shall pray for you every day and every night.
HELIOGABALUS
Yes, yes—every night—out there—[again pointing]—in the West. And now I must get back to my guests. The centurions will see you off. I surely wish you every sort of luck. Let me hear from you now and then. Let me hear how your enterprise comes on. I'll send word that you are to be protected. A happy journey.
LUCIA
Fare you well! May the Lord keep you!
HELIOGABALUS
Thanks. Are you sure you don't need more clothes?
LUCIA
I need no worldly goods. My Faith, the Lord, are enough!
