PRIMA DONNA
Sing, prima donna, once more!
Giry
Oh fools, to have flouted his warnings!
Raoul
Surely, for her sake . . .
Meg
Surely he'll strike back . . .
Andre/Firmin
Surely there'll be further scenes -worse than this!
Giry
Think, before these demands are rejected! |

Raoul
. . .I must see these demands are rejected!
Meg
. . . if his threats and demands are rejected!
Andre/Firmin
Who'd believe a diva happy to relieve a chorus girl,
who's gone and slept with the patron?
Raoul
and the soubrette, entwined in love's duet!
Although he may demur, he must have been with her!
Meg/Raoul
Christine must be protected!
Carlotta
O, fortunata! Non ancor abbandonata! next |
