Con. Have you no fear?

Eri. Of what?—that heaven should fall?

Con. No!—But that earth

Should arm in madness. Brother! I have seen

Dark eyes bent on you, e’en midst festal throngs,

With such deep hatred settled in their glance,

My heart hath died within me.

Eri. Am I then

To pause, and doubt, and shrink, because a girl,

A dreaming girl, hath trembled at a look?
