And yet I fear the dances will be stopped,

And Preciosa be once more a beggar.

Vic. The sweetest beggar that e’er asked for alms;

With such beseeching eyes, that when I saw thee

I gave my heart away!

Pre. Dost thou remember

When first we met?

Vic. It was at Cordova,

In the Cathedral garden. Thou wast sitting

Under the orange-trees, beside a fountain.
