See, the dear saint kneels at the altar's foot;

See, her white hands with fervent clasps are rais'd;

Perhaps for me. Have you a heart, my father,

And bid me bear to lose her?—Hold me not—

I come, I fly, my life, my all! to join thee.

[Exit.

Aust. Return, return, rash boy!——Pernicious chance!

One glance from her will quite destroy my work,

And leave me but my sorrow for my labour.
