Count. Speak, tell me quickly, thou dear, suffering angel!

Adel. Be gentle to my mother; her kind nature

Has suffer'd much; she will need all your care:

Forsake her not; and may the All-merciful

Look down with pity on this fatal error;

Bless you—and—oh—

[Dies.

Count. She dies in prayer for me;

Prays for me, while her life streams from my stroke.
