The Princess: He is dead.

O body, you repose in incorruptible gold.

(Silence.

I remember everything, the winter, the days of feasting,

The people I knew, the times of rejoicing and of mourning, the changes of the weather, the countries I have seen,

And my robes that were kept in the cypress chest.

O Prince! O Master! King of men!

(Pause.

(Steps. Voices behind the scenes.

(Enter the commander of the second army with other officers.
