KING PHARAMOND

What wilt thou have of me, for I wend away swiftly?

LOVE

Open thine eyes, and behold where thou liest!

KING PHARAMOND

It is little—the old dream, the old lie is about me.

LOVE

Why faintest thou, Pharamond? is love then unworthy?

KING PHARAMOND

Then hath God made no world now, nor shall make hereafter.
