The palace is deserted; I have gone through the rooms, the gardens and the courts, the long box hedges, the marble staircases....
Joyzelle.
Go away, it is only a trap.... He has a design upon your life; I know it, he said so.... He suspects that I love you.... He is only seeking an excuse for what he would like to do.... Go away!... As it is, you have done too much....
Lancéor.
No.
Joyzelle.
If you do not go away, then I shall go.
Lancéor.
If you go, Joyzelle, I shall remain at this gate until night brings him back to the palace.... He will find me on this forbidden threshold.... I have passed the limits assigned to me; I have therefore disobeyed him and I wish him to see it and I wish him to know it!...
Joyzelle.
