The dark are hot and staring eyes.
Aris. Nay, nay,
Put courage in thy heart to gender wings
That we may dart as swallows to the sun
And tread the rosy air where love may breathe!

Aris. Come! come! Greece is our home of light.
There you, my wife, shall rule a lesser heaven
And tutor souls for God's. [She turns to go]
One moment hear me!
