[_Exit, VALDEZ following after her._
_Ordonio._ This, then, is my reward! and I must love her?
Scorn'd! shudder'd at! yet love her still? yes! yes!
By the deep feelings of revenge and hate 170 I will still love her--woo her--win her too! [_A pause._ Isidore safe and silent, and the portrait Found on the wizard--he, belike, self-poison'd To escape the crueller flames----My soul shouts triumph!
The mine is undermined! blood! blood! blood! 175 They thirst for thy blood! thy blood, Ordonio! [_A pause._ The hunt is up! and in the midnight wood With lights to dazzle and with nets they seek A timid prey: and lo! the tiger's eye Glares in the red flame of his hunter's torch! 180
To Isidore I will dispatch a message, And lure him to the cavern! aye, that cavern!
He cannot fail to find it. Thither I'll lure him, Whence he shall never, never more return!
[_Looks through the side window._
A rim of the sun lies yet upon the sea, 185 And now 'tis gone! All shall be done to-night. [_Exit._
FOOTNOTES:
[853:1] 45-6. Compare _The Death of Wallenstein_, Act I, Sc. IV, ll.
48-9. See note by J. D. Campbell, _P. W._, 1893, p. 650.
[856:1] It was pleasing to observe, during the Rehearsal all the Actors and Actresses and even the Mechanics on the stage cl.u.s.tering round while these lines were repeating just as if it had been a favourite strain of Music. But from want of depth and volume of voice in Rae, they did not produce an equal effect on the Public till after the Publication--and _then_ they (I understand) were applauded. I have never seen the Piece since the first Night. _S. T. C._
