"How sumptuous!"

"How brilliant!"

[Softly humming to the music, the Old Women begin to circle round the Man—mouthing with their lips, and making, a horrible travesty of the movements of the white-robed dancers who danced at the Man's ball. To the first phrase of the tune they whirl themselves round; to the second they converge and retire; to the third and fourth they whirl themselves round in their places—stepping softly, and on tiptoe, as, at intervals, they whisper, in the Man's ear:]

Do you remember it, Man?

You are going to die soon, but do you remember it?

Do you remember it?

Do you remember it?

You are going to die soon, but do you remember it?
