Who hath done this?

Vit. Before the gates I stood,

And in the name of him, the loved and lost,

With whom I soon shall be, all vainly strove

To stay the shameful flight. Then from the foe,

Fraught with my summons to his viewless home,

Came the fleet shaft which pierced me.

Ans. Yet, oh yet,

It may not be too late. Help, help!

Vit. (to Raimond.) Away!
