Scene I
|
|
(Fan Jie at stage upper left, Zixin at stage upper right. Wu Wang lies on the ground, his eyes closed)
|
|
(The two people grope in the darkness of Wu Wang's lair)
|
|
(Their hands make contact in the dark, but not knowing who the other is, they draw away in alarm)
|
|
(Wu Wang awakens)
|
|
(Aside)
|
|
Wu Wang: "Why, that girl is as willful as I, to dare to strike me so."
|
|
Wu Wang: "No one is about. Perhaps they have fled further within."
|
|
Wu Wang: "Hmph. The night is come, the gate is closed."
|
|
Wu Wang: "Unless they jumped the wall, how should that maiden escape? Surely not by the gate!"
|
|
(Wu Wang enters the hall)
|
|
(Aside)
|
|
Wu Wang: "Hah. These louts are drunk out of their gourds. Not one light they lit!"
|
|
Wu Wang: "Well, let me get myself one, and let us begin our search."
|
|
(Wu Wang steps on Fan Jie's foot in the dark, and they both draw back)
|
|
Wu Wang: "Haha, so there you are!"
|
|
(Wu Wang stretches his arms out to lunge at Fan Jie, who ducks. They stumble about in the dark as Zixin shrinks into a corner)
|
|
(Wu Wang finally grabs Fan Jie)
|
|
Wu Wang: "I have you!"
|
|
(Aside)
|
|
Wu Wang: "Hmm? Have you grown so wide about the waist since last we met?"
|
|
Fan Jie: "I put on more clothes, all the better to keep warm with."
|
|
Wu Wang: "Indeed, one must wear more in cold weather."
|
|
Wu Wang: "Then why have you grown so tall?"
|
|
Fan Jie: "I have worn high shoes, all the better to put on a show with."
|
|
Wu Wang: "Oh, surely that must be difficult."
|
|
Wu Wang: "And why have your hands grown so rough?"
|
|
Fan Jie: "Well... Lean closer and I shall tell you."
|
|
Wu Wang: "Of course, of course."
|
|
(Fan Jie stabs Wu Wang with his sword)
|
|
Fan Jie: "To bear a sword, All the better to take your life with."
|
|
(Wu Wang falls)
|
|
|
|
Scene II
|
|
(Aside)
|
|
Fan Jie: "Foul villain. But a stroke, and you are slain."
|
|
Zixin: "Are you Fan Jie?"
|
|
Fan Jie: "This voice — you must be Miss Zixin!"
|
|
(Fan Jie and Zixin reach out and touch each other)
|
|
Zixin: "Fan Jie!"
|
|
Fan Jie: "You must have suffered."
|
|
Fan Jie: "I have slain that devil. His minions are all that remains."
|
|
Fan Jie: "His death shall scatter them like monkeys when their great tree falls."
|
|
Fan Jie: "Do not fear, I shall break the gate."
|
|
(Fan Jie breaks the gate)
|
|
Zixin: "Ah! My life would have been forfeit had you not arrived."
|
|
(Dongtang, lento, innig)
|
|
Zixin: "A heart of pearls in your house shall nest."
|
|
Fan Jie: "In the skies with the wind shall we find rest."
|
|
Fan Jie: The white moon shines o'er the catalpas glade.
|
|
Zixin: And with lowered head, the promise is made.
