Would but Siegfried return!
[Hagen's voice is heard outside coming nearer. When Gutrune hears it she stands for a time transfixed with terror.
HAGEN
Hoiho! Hoiho!
Awake! Awake!
Lights! Ho! lights here!
Burning torches!
Home bring we
Spoils of the chase.
Hoiho! Hoiho!
[Increasing light from the torches is seen without. Hagen enters the hall.
Up! Gutrun'!
Give Siegfried greeting,
For home to thee
Thy hero comes.
GUTRUNE [In great fear.
What is wrong, Hagen?
I heard not his horn.
[Men and women with lights and firebrands accompany, in great confusion, the procession returning with Siegfried's body.
