What do you wish?
Where are you going?
(ENTER L. young Bruni with Margaretta)
Margaretta
res burn me! Where am I
My ###
X will go back.
Bruni
Please remain! You have seen nothing, yet.
I will esoort you and show you all the splendor.
Margaretta
I will go no further
no!
Bruni
Look about you!
Margaretta
Is it true? The Duke lives here?
Bruni
I have you not often
Seen the high gate through which we entered?
Margaretta
And you, who are you then? Are you the same, who came to
my window?
Bruni
I am he. And I
have invited you in the Duke’s name.
Look about, there are many here like you.
They dance in the garden, on the terrace,
They go about chatting with young men.
And all look like you, my beautiful child,
And like the Princess herself, so radiant,
For the first time.
Margaretta
Is it really Beatrice Nardi, the mad
Nardis' daughter?
Hama
She it is.
