SIEGE OF VALENCIA.

ELMINA.

Oh! that I should live

To say, I dare not look on thee!—Farewell,
My first born, fare thee well!

ALPHONSO.

Yet, yet beware!

It were a grief more heavy on thy soul,
That I should blush for thee, than o'er my grave
That thou shouldst proudly weep!

ABDULLAH.

Away! we trifle here. The night wanes fast.

Come forth!

ELMINA.

One more embrace! My sons, farewell!

[Exeunt Abdullah with Elmina and
her Attendant.

ALPHONSO.

Hear me yet once, my mother!

Art thou gone?
But one word more!
[He rushes out, followed by Carlos.
