Ellida——! Ellida——!

Ellida.

Yes, yes—you must let me! I can assure you there will be nothing else for it in the end—after the way we two came together.

Wangel.

[Controlling his emotion.] So it has come to this!

Ellida.

It had to come to this; no other end was possible.

Wangel.

[Looks sorrowfully at her.] So even in our daily life together I have not won you. You have never, never been wholly mine.

Ellida.
