How mournfully thou sighest! Yet

How glorious are thine eyes this lovely day!

Thou’rt well, and thou art happy, art thou not?

Yvette

There is no hunger here, no cold, no care!

I ever wished to learn and here I learn,

Here where the Duchess Jeanne did sit forlorn,—

And then I pray within the chapel there,

And then I count the stars as they are lit,—

And then I think of all the lights of Nantes!
