Noon
She follows him with a strained eye when his figure is no longer seen ; she leans her head upon her arm . She is faithful to him as the lake to the mountain ! _ Chorus of Youths _ Hours fly ! it is Noon ; fierce is the restless sun ! While he labours he thinks of her ! while he controls others he will obey her ! A strong man subdued by love is like a vineyard silvered by the moon !
