THE YOUNG SYRIAN

She is very beautiful to-night.


FIRST SOLDIER

The Tetrarch has a sombre aspect.


SECOND SOLDIER

Yes; he has a sombre aspect.


FIRST SOLDIER

He is looking at something.


SECOND SOLDIER

He is looking at some one.


FIRST SOLDIER

At whom is he looking?


SECOND SOLDIER

I cannot tell.


THE YOUNG SYRIAN

How pale the Princess is! Never have I seen her so pale. She is like the shadow of a white rose in a mirror of silver.


THE PAGE OF HERODIAS

You must not look at her. You look too much at her.


FIRST SOLDIER

Herodias has filled the cup of the Tetrarch.
