Yvette

What is this pain that’s tearing at my heart?

What matters it to me whom he doth love?

And what concern of mine that she is fair?

I would she were not so!—Oh, misery!

She is in Nantes, she is La Belle Marquise!

I would that she were dead!

[The chapel bell rings.

O Seigneur Dieu!

Her death! I do not wish her death! Not I!
