ORESTES.
My kingdom must be an ever-changing kingdom. I dreamed for an hour that I might stay and rest like other men.
HERMIONE.
And why not?
ORESTES.
There be Those watching that will not let me rest.
HERMIONE.
Those watching? But you have not seen them? _I_ have not seen anything!
[_To herself._
ORESTES.
Not now. Few men have ever seen them; but I hear their wings on the wind. And perchance if I stayed long in one place----
HERMIONE.
I hear nothing. [_Listening._] No, it cannot be wings on the wind! Oh!
ANDROMACHE.
Nay, there is no sound at all. Be not so terrified.
HERMIONE.
I cannot stay here alone! Oh, I care not for the kingdom.
ORESTES.
We are exiles for ever, both!
HERMIONE.
Nay, if you love me I can bear anything; if any one will love me.
ORESTES.
I know not if I love or hate you. It was for your pa.s.sing beauty I came, because your eyes beaconed me through the dark of the sea.
HERMIONE.
Oh, take me; that is all the love I want!
ORESTES.
Like those two stars that men call Helen's brethren, immortal, never fading----
HERMIONE.
Oh, I am fading fast, but, perchance, if the spell were off me----
ORESTES.
Nay, you shall never fade. There is a blue sunlit island, waterless, desolate--Hear me, daughter of Helen, ageless and deathless!
HERMIONE.
I hear.
ORESTES.
Some sunset when you are beautiful like a dream I will set you on that bright island, and fill my eyes full. And then I will go my ways alone, and the fairest of earthly things shall be mine for ever.
HERMIONE.
What do you mean?
ORESTES.
No man shall ever see you fade from your loveliness. The G.o.ds may take you even as they took Helen.
ANDROMACHE.
Oh, he is mad! Queen, Queen, go back while there is time.
HERMIONE.
[_Shrinking back._] I should die! I am afraid!
ORESTES.
Die? Of that I know not. Only never, never fade; perfect for ever without age or waning! Daughter of Helen, will you come with me?
[_A sound of arms outside. They start._
HERMIONE.
Oh, quick! I am yours. Do with me what you will.
ORESTES.
Come. [_Sound again._] What is that?
