(Sings.)

O Love, that lights this world
Yet leaves us i’ the dark;—
I led thee to my couch,
A grave-cloth was thy sark!
O Love, we would be clothed,
And thou hast left us stark.

Yea, I am on fire. Snow! snow! Would I had snow to cool me.

Fool, thou art no more a fool. Dagonet, thou art a man!

Thou lovest. This must be done. (Goes out.)
