And that that mortal counterpart may stay

In fairy land and fill the fairy’s place

Till he return. Is there not some such law?

Sel. And if there be, wouldst put that law in force?(horrified).

Zay. No; not for all the love of all the world!(equally horrified).

Sel. A man in fairy land! Most horrible!

He would exhale the poison of his soul,

And we should even be as mortals are,

Hating as man hates!

Dar. (enthusiastically). Loving as man loves!
