Antoinette (sadly, but with a touch of roguishness). And you the other woman!

Paul (startled). Do not remind me of it!

Antoinette (endearingly). I took the other man while I was thinking of you! I waited for you!

Paul. Waited for me, and I was not conscious of it. Missed my happiness. Staked my life for nothing! For a delusion! Some one had to die before I could realize what I might have enjoyed! Too late, too late, too late!

Antoinette (endearingly). Forget, my love! Forget! Forget! Lay your head upon my breast!

Paul (places his head upon her bosom). A good resting place.

Antoinette (rocks him in her arms). Sleep, beloved! Sleep!

Paul, (straightens up, beside himself with longing). Antoinette!...

Antoinette. Mine again, lover of my youth!

Paul. Dearest!... Dearest!
