The Maid of Orleans (play)

SCENE V.

MARGOT and LOUISON join them.

LOUISON.

We shall again behold our sister, Margot!

How my heart beats!

MARGOT.

In majesty and pomp

We shall behold her, saying to ourselves:

It is our sister, it is our Johanna!

LOUISON.

Till I have seen her, I can scarce believe

That she, whom men the Maid of Orleans name,

The mighty warrior, is indeed Johanna,

Our sister whom we lost!

[The music draws nearer.

MARGOT.

Thou doubtest still!

Thou wilt thyself behold her!

BERTRAND.

See, they come!
