Arcite goes to walk up to Emelye, to claim his prize. Suddenly, under the gods' orders the ground shakes underneath him.
|
|
|
|
 | |  |
| Hah! I knew I would beat him! Now I can finally be with Emelye...Oh no, what is happening! | |
 | |  |
|
 |
|
|
|
Arcite is thrown from his beast of a horse, and lies on the ground, about to die.
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
Emelye runs up to him and kneels by his side.
|
|
|
|
 | |  |
| Emelye, if you choose to marry someone else, consider my friend Palamon. He has great qualities,"trouthe, honour, knyghthede, / Wysdom, humblesse" | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| Oh, you are such a sweetheart, Arcite, I will remember you forever. | |
