ISOLDA (gazing up at him in thoughtful ecstasy).
O might we then
together die!
TRISTAN. Each the other's—
ISOLDA. Own for aye,—
TRISTAN. Never fearing—
ISOLDA. Never waking—
TRISTAN. Blest delights
of love partaking—
ISOLDA. Each to each be given;
in love alone our heaven.
(ISOLDA, as if overcome, droops her head on his breast.)
BRANGÆNA'S VOICE (as before).
Have a care!
Have a care!
Night yields to daylight's glare.
TRISTAN (bends smilingly to ISOLDA).
Shall I listen?
