Was I firmer? Perhaps.... I have grown accustomed to talk to you softly at night. Well—how shall I tell it to you? They are coming.
EMIL GRELIEU
Coming?
JEANNE
Yes. You know their numbers and ours. Don't be excited, but I think that it will be necessary for us to leave for Antwerp today.
EMIL GRELIEU
Are they near?
JEANNE
Yes, they are near. Very near.
Sings softly.
