About the city streets: your brother, who

Was with us, can bear witness. Yet if still

You think me guilty, but come back to say so,

And let me plead once more, and you once more

Condemn, and yet once more, and all in vain,

If you will only but come back again!

Anna (returning to the window). And this is true?

Ces. So help me Heav’n, it is!

Why, could you, Anna, in your heart believe

I could forget you?
