Text Appearing Before Image:
after toil as hard as ours Beneath a stranger sun. Many a maiden fair is waiting here To greet her truant soldier lover, And many a heart will fail and brow grow pale,To hear the tale of peril he has run!Glory and love to the men of old, etc. The unhappy Marguerite, shunned by her companions and deserted by all save thefaithful Siebel, is brooding within the cottage, fearing to meet her brother, who has justreturned from the war. Mephistopheles, not content with the evil he has already wrought,returns to taunt the maiden with her fault, and sings this insulting and literally infernalsong, each verse of which ends with a mocking laugh.

Mephistopheles : Thou who here art soundly sleeping, Close not thus thy heart, Close not thus thy heart! Caterina! wake ihee! wake thee! Caterina! wake! tis thy lover near! Hearken to my love-lorn pleading; Let thy heart be interceding, Awake, love, and hear! Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! ha! Dont come down until, my dear, The nuptial ring appear On thy finger sparkling clearly— The wedding-ring—the ring shineth clear. Ha! ha! ha! ha! etc. Caterina! cruel, cruel! Cruel to deny to him who loves thee- And for thee doth mourn and sigh— A single kiss from thy rosy lips. Thus to slight a faithful lover, Who so long hath been a rover, Too bad, I declare! Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! Not a single kiss, my dear, Unless the ring appear! Ha, ha, ha, ha! etc. Jl! ^^^B
